I have a code in which I am captureing browser closing event to end session variable.
window.onbeforeunload = function(){

if((window.event.clientX<0) ||(window.event.clientY<0))

this thing works when I close the browser from the top right(X) but this code is not working for browser close from task bar-> right click ->close

In this case the event(window.event) is not firing.

Need help in this regard.

Thanks,
Chaitaya

You are not going to catch all of the close events. All you have to work with in onbeforeunload.

If you are trying to clean up data on the server with a log out, that is what a session timeout is for.
