Indeed, keep telling the client it's bad, but what you need is the JavaScript event onunload, http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/jsref_onunload.asp
slight change of plans
I need to figure out how to create a java script alert that will open on window close, and then if they click ok will open a new page. This is out od the stuff i usually do, as I'm not in the business of being annoying

Wow, I'm sorry, but I would have to just simply tell the client, "No, I can't do that. It's against my religion."
Anyways, you should be able to combine the normal alert command from JavaScript (don't recall it, I've been out of the loop for too long), with the onunload command mentioned earlier to produce that effect.

okay, wow, I have to change my question again (client is giving me a head-ache).
These types of 'hacks' are never somthing I really bothered to learn, UI and social networking, design ect. are really my things.
but here is the new thing:
I need to have a new window open, when they close the current window.
The client is calling it a downsale, basically you decide you dont want to buy the product, they offer you a different product, for a lower price.
Yes, I do not want to do this either, but at $75 an hour (their offer, not mine). I figure that I have to do it for them, so please if anybody has any ideas, I would very much appreciate it.
Thanks!!
