    Angry "Leave This Page" dialog box is driving me mad!

    Is there a way to disable the popup dialog that asks if I am sure I want to navigate away from this page whenever I use the browser back button? It get's quite annoting. Occasionally there will be a checkbox that says "Prevent further messages from this page", and I always check it. But later on, the message will pop up again. This is driving me nuts.

    For internet explorer I had to set it up to block pop ups but the it became a problem with editing posts and pictures. I changed over to using the chrome browser some time ago and I don't have the pop ups or editing issues any more. Once in a while there will be several days of glitchy behavior but it gets sorted out. Perhaps it is something here on the site as well?

    On firefox you only get the 'confirm that you want to leave' pop-up if you've entered some text in one of the forms on the page. If you haven't entered anything yourself, then your browser might be attempting to auto-complete some forms on the page (if you are not logged in it might be the username or password field), so it might be worth disabling the feature for this site and seeing if it helps.
