Disabling "Are you sure you want to navigate away from this page" warning?

@ReeceDec 09.2010

I was wondering if somebody could tell me how to disable the warning mentioned in the title. I have pop-ups that require passwords, and when entered and submitted redirect to another page. I’d prefer this to be seamless, but I need to get rid of the warning message first.

Anybody know how?

Really though, we need to see the code generating this confirm window. Tracking that code down will be your first step.

@toicontienDec 09.2010 — #The <script> tag that loads p.js from freewebs.com is responsible. If you remove that <script> tag the warning should go away.

@toicontienDec 09.2010 — #As a side note, if you run across minified JavaScript, you can use http://jsbeautifier.org/ to reformat it and make it more readable.
