• 2 Would'nt that be great for spammers, if you could just disable closing the browser. Not annoying at all. This is of course not possible for obvious reasons. – adeneo Commented Apr 3, 2013 at 7:37

It's NOT POSSIBLE to disable close button in any of the modern browsers.

If all that you are looking for is to keep users in your page, then i would suggest using the window.onbeforeunload JavaScript event

window.onbeforeunload = function(){ return 'Do you want to leave ?';}

It's supported in all major browsers by asking users a question as to whether they want to leave in the middle of a critical operation.

Here is a reference article to get you startedUsing the OnBeforeUnload JavaScript Event

You can not disable the browser's close button , but yes you can capture the browser's close button with the help of Jquery
