when editing layout if you press the backspace button you exit the template options about astroid-framework HOT 11 CLOSED

Related to #62 and should be fixed as part of it.

Thanks again for taking a very through look at Astroid.

Thanks,

Tried recreating this one but didn't face any issue: https://www.screencast.com/t/jPElFBv5qsH

I will have a another look

Thanks @Nishtha003 and @chandanndeep for your opinion too :).

After a bit of research

• Google Chrome 75.0.3770.142 = ok
• Firefox 68.0 = still has the same problem
• Firefox 68.0 (safe mode) = still has the same problem

So it looks like Firefox is the culprit.

I can confirm the above on a fresh copy of windows 1903 and fresh copies of firefox and chrome. The results are the same.

Astroid v2.2.3

@Nishtha003 back to you.

@shoulders Yes you are right it is there, but this feature is provided by Firefox and not us Joomdev peeps.
Firefox has this option that using the Backspace key one can go back to the previous page and that's what's happening here.

@Nishtha003 as far as I could recall. It existed in all browsers until chrome decided to take it out.

@shoulders but we can't really do anything about it.

@ Nishtha003 You learn something everyday. This is one of the most stupid things I have come across. In the world of AJAX this is a massive potential for loosing data becasue people dont always keep an eye out on what they last clicked. At least Google have removed it.

@chetanmadaan is there no way to bind a NULL function to the backspace key when not in input focus? Or something along these lines: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1495219/how-can-i-prevent-the-backspace-key-from-navigating-back

If this issue cannot be progressed any further because of this new information then I would be happy for it to be closed.

@shoulders I think I may have a fix for this.

We already display a warning to the user if the user tried to close the tab before saving changes or even reload back. I think we can use window.onbeforeunload for any unsaved changes.

demo here: http://jsfiddle.net/vaibviad/bMgpc/249/ You are warned before going back, reloading or using backspace button on firefox too.

We'll implement this. Thanks for your commitment towards making Astroid better Jon.
