Does anyone know a quick way to check for database changes on a page and
then prompt the user to save when leaving the page without hitting the
submit button?

Declare a variable on the client side that is set "true" by the OnChange
event of any control you want to monitor. Then some javascript in the
<BODY> tag to implement the onbeforeunload event to check the variable and
intercept the unload - using the alert() function to warn the user. Check
the scripting sites - there are a number of examples of this floating
around. I have a few of these sites bookmarked on my site which should get
you a solution.

Go to the URL in my sig and look under "TECHlinks" (click the arrow to see
the full list - there is only room for the most recent ones on the main
page). One pretty comprehensive source is Simplythebest
