I have attempted to try to meet those requests and therefore have launched version 1.1. The updates in this release are:

• There is now the ability to set the timeOut option to 0, and thus keep leaveNotice from automatically forwarding the user. When timeOut is set to 0, the user will have to click the link from the leaveNotice dialog in order to advance to the linked page.
• There is a new option that can now be set that is called linkString. This is just a string that gets added to the outgoing link. The purpose of this property is it allows for adding a class or other property to the outgoing link.
• LeaveNotice now works when jQuery is running in noConflict() mode.

You can see examples and get more info if you’d like: leaveNotice plug in page.

Check it out!

I have written some scripts that I have used across various projects I’ve worked on. I have thought frequently about making them into actual plugins, but until now have not done so. It was pretty easy and kind of fun.

This plugin shows a user a dialog box when they click links that link away from a given website. I’ve seen this sort of functionality around the web and, as I said, implemented it a few times myself. Hopefully, this plugin will make things easier for people.

Check it out and let me know what you think!
