I too am tracking the variety of bugs that have to do with Webkit's poor
support for onbeforeunload. I really need to sit down and do a test case for
all of the variety of ways that this can be set. I did figure out a workaround
that, at least, works for me:

1. Either put the onbeforeunload="...function text..." on the body element
itself or
2. Put some JavaScript in your page that sets that attribute on the body as
part of the onload process, thusly:

function onloadSetup()
{
document.body.setAttribute('onbeforeunload', 'return "Do you really want to do
this?"');
}

....

And then in your markup:

<body onload="onloadSetup()">...</body>

Hope this helps.

Cheers,

- Bill
