$.expr[':'].internal = function(obj){
    return obj.hostname == location.hostname;
};

$(function() {
    var unloadMessage = function() {
        return "Don't leave me!";
    };

    $('a:internal').click(function() { 
        window.onbeforeunload = null;
    });
    $('form').submit(function() { 
        window.onbeforeunload = null;
    });

    $('a:external').click(function() { 
        window.onbeforeunload = unloadMessage;
    });

    window.onbeforeunload = unloadMessage;
});
