Error Messages

No error messages

Steps to Reproduce

1. Open a new tab (create a new work object).
2. Close that tab by clicking on the 'X' (cross) icon.

Root Cause

The root cause of this problem is in a third-party product, that is the end user browser. This message of "Are you sure you want to Leave this page?" appears when the browser page is dirty, that is, the page has been modified (example, a tab has been closed), however, it has not been comitted yet and it is residing in the browser's cache.

Resolution

This issue is resolved through the following local change: 

1. Save the HTML Fragment UserWorkForm into user's own ruleset (if it is not already).
​
2. Add the following script to UserWorkForm

     <script>
           if (parent && parent.pega && parent.pega.u && parent.pega.u.d) {
                parent.pega.u.d.gDirtyOverride = false;
           }
           pega.u.d.gDirtyOverride = false;
   </script>

3. Save the form and test the behaviour.
