I often have a number of windows open on my computer. One of the many extravagancies that come with new age super fast computers. Well, many windows translates into lots of wrong-window-closing-situations. Now its fine if I type a long report in word and close the window by mistake because it does not just close (it warns me first) but the same is not true for my browser window on which I might have just type a new idea for the bakery or written an email to my professor explaining exactly why I was not able to submit my report on time. I'd like to see the same feature in browser windows that have a ‘text area’ inside. Now I know this is easy to do because any script can detect a text area; so I imagine it can be done with IE or any other browser. Any thoughts?

Although not with quite the same solution. [jutta, Feb 07 2006]

       Even better if it sends your halfbakery idea to your professor so he knows why you're late. Nice idea [+]

       Shouldn't there be a big back button at the upper right of the screen that backs up anything?
