I need to capture the following events in IE 5+ and Netscape 6:

- Enter new address in URL window and click "GO"
- Select a favorite
- Click "Home" button
- Click "Back" or "Forward" button

Basically, I have to see if someone is navigating away from our page
under very specific circumstances, and pop-up a window. I need more
granularity than the unload and onclose events will give me.

Any help at all is greatly appreciated

In a normal environment all of the above is impossible.

Why the requirement of "IE5+ and Netscape 6" ? that's an odd one, I
can understand IE only, and I can understand works anywhere possible,
but don't understand chopping off Safari, Opera and Konquerer.

From an user perspective, your requests, your wishes are absolutely
over-excessive, over-controlling, intrusive, invasive and unjustifiable.
Wherever an user decides to go should be entirely up to him and none
of the web developers' business, none of his concern.

Is it even possible at all in NN? I would think one would have to write
a COM add in for non-IE browser button press captures...
