Rewriting the question -
I am trying to make a page on which if user leave the page (either to other link/website or closing window/tab) I want to show the onbeforeunload handeler saying we have a great offer for you? and if user choose to leave the page it should do the normal propogation but if he choose to stay on the page I need him to redirect it to offer page redirection is important, no compromise. For testing lets redirect to google.com
I made a program as follows -
var stayonthis = true;
var a;
function load() {
window.onbeforeunload = function(e) {
if(stayonthis){
a = setTimeout('window.location.href="http://google.com";',100);
stayonthis = false;
return "Do you really want to leave now?";
}
else {
clearTimeout(a);
}
};
window.onunload = function(e) {
clearTimeout(a);
};
}
window.onload = load;
but the problem is that if he click on the link to yahoo.com and choose to leave the page he is not going to yahoo but to google instead :(
Help Me !! Thanks in Advance
here is the fiddle code
here how you can test because onbeforeunload does not work on iframe well

The onbeforeunload event occurs when the document is about to be unloaded. This event allows you to display a message in a confirmation dialog box to inform the user whether he/she wants to stay or leave the current page. The default message that appears in the confirmation box, is different in different browsers.
onbeforeunload Below are my findings on the iPad; Using window. onunload , I am able to get an alert when user navigates to a different page from myPage. html (either by clicking on some link or doing a Google search while on myPage.
The beforeunload event is fired when the window, the document and its resources are about to be unloaded. The document is still visible and the event is still cancelable at this point. This event enables a web page to trigger a confirmation dialog asking the user if they really want to leave the page.
This solution works in all cases, using back browser button, setting new url in address bar or use links. What i have found is that triggering onbeforeunload handler doesn't show the dialog attached to onbeforeunload handler. In this case (when triggering is needed), use a confirm box to show the user message. This workaround is tested in chrome/firefox and IE (7 to 10)

EDIT: set DEMO on codepen, apparently jsFiddle doesn't like this snippet(?!)
BTW, using bing.com due to google not allowing no more content being displayed inside iframe.
http://codepen.io/anon/pen/dYKKbZ
var a, b = false,
c = "http://bing.com";
function triggerEvent(el, type) {
if ((el[type] || false) && typeof el[type] == 'function') {
el[type](el);
}
}
$(function () {
$('a:not([href^=#])').on('click', function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
if (confirm("Do you really want to leave now?")) c = this.href;
triggerEvent(window, 'onbeforeunload');
});
});
window.onbeforeunload = function (e) {
if (b) return;
a = setTimeout(function () {
b = true;
window.location.href = c;
c = "http://bing.com";
console.log(c);
}, 500);
return "Do you really want to leave now?";
}
window.onunload = function () {
clearTimeout(a);
}
It's better to Check it local.
Check out the comments and try this: LIVE DEMO
var linkClick=false;
document.onclick = function(e)
{
linkClick = true;
var elemntTagName = e.target.tagName;
if(elemntTagName=='A')
{
e.target.getAttribute("href");
if(!confirm('Are your sure you want to leave?'))
{
window.location.href = "http://google.com";
console.log("http://google.com");
}
else
{
window.location.href = e.target.getAttribute("href");
console.log(e.target.getAttribute("href"));
}
return false;
}
}
function OnBeforeUnLoad ()
{
return "Are you sure?";
linkClick=false;
window.location.href = "http://google.com";
console.log("http://google.com");
}
And change your html code to this:
<body onbeforeunload="if(linkClick == false) {return OnBeforeUnLoad()}">
<a href="http://yahoo.com">try it</a>
</body>
