Get url for the page being opened next in [removed] event

Question

Is there a way get the location for page being opened next in the window.onunload event.

No! That would be a security problem. Imagine someone navigating from a porn site to a banking site. The other way round (with the HTTP Referrer header) is already somewhat a headache. Firefox allows to suppress the referrer:

Enter about:config in the address bar Search for referer (sic) Set network.http.sendRefererHeader to 0
