通用解决方案无需配置，自动检测所有输入修改，包括可满足的元素:

"use strict";
(() => {
const modified_inputs = new Set;
const defaultValue = "defaultValue";
// store default values
addEventListener("beforeinput", (evt) => {
    const target = evt.target;
    if (!(defaultValue in target || defaultValue in target.dataset)) {
        target.dataset[defaultValue] = ("" + (target.value || target.textContent)).trim();
    }
});
// detect input modifications
addEventListener("input", (evt) => {
    const target = evt.target;
    let original;
    if (defaultValue in target) {
        original = target[defaultValue];
    } else {
        original = target.dataset[defaultValue];
    }
    if (original !== ("" + (target.value || target.textContent)).trim()) {
        if (!modified_inputs.has(target)) {
            modified_inputs.add(target);
        }
    } else if (modified_inputs.has(target)) {
        modified_inputs.delete(target);
    }
});
// clear modified inputs upon form submission
addEventListener("submit", (evt) => {
    modified_inputs.clear();
    // to prevent the warning from happening, it is advisable
    // that you clear your form controls back to their default
    // state with evt.target.reset() or form.reset() after submission
});
// warn before closing if any inputs are modified
addEventListener("beforeunload", (evt) => {
    if (modified_inputs.size) {
        const unsaved_changes_warning = "Changes you made may not be saved.";
        evt.returnValue = unsaved_changes_warning;
        return unsaved_changes_warning;
    }
});
})();

根据之前的回答，并从堆栈溢出的不同地方拼凑在一起，这里是我提出的解决方案，当你实际上想要提交你的更改时，它可以处理这种情况:

window.thisPage = window.thisPage || {};
window.thisPage.isDirty = false;

window.thisPage.closeEditorWarning = function (event) {
    if (window.thisPage.isDirty)
        return 'It looks like you have been editing something' +
               ' - if you leave before saving, then your changes will be lost.'
    else
        return undefined;
};

$("form").on('keyup', 'textarea', // You can use input[type=text] here as well.
             function () { 
                 window.thisPage.isDirty = true; 
             });

$("form").submit(function () {
    QC.thisPage.isDirty = false;
});
window.onbeforeunload = window.thisPage.closeEditorWarning;

值得注意的是，IE11似乎要求closeEditorWarning函数返回undefined才能不显示警报。

简短的回答:

let pageModified = true

window.addEventListener("beforeunload", 
  () => pageModified ? 'Close page without saving data?' : null
)

测试了伊莱·格雷的通用解决方案，只有在我把代码简化到

  'use strict';
  (() => {
    const modified_inputs = new Set();
    const defaultValue = 'defaultValue';
    // store default values
    addEventListener('beforeinput', evt => {
      const target = evt.target;
      if (!(defaultValue in target.dataset)) {
        target.dataset[defaultValue] = ('' + (target.value || target.textContent)).trim();
      }
    });

    // detect input modifications
    addEventListener('input', evt => {
      const target = evt.target;
      let original = target.dataset[defaultValue];

      let current = ('' + (target.value || target.textContent)).trim();

      if (original !== current) {
        if (!modified_inputs.has(target)) {
          modified_inputs.add(target);
        }
      } else if (modified_inputs.has(target)) {
        modified_inputs.delete(target);
      }
    });

    addEventListener(
      'saved',
      function(e) {
        modified_inputs.clear()
      },
      false
    );

    addEventListener('beforeunload', evt => {
      if (modified_inputs.size) {
        const unsaved_changes_warning = 'Changes you made may not be saved.';
        evt.returnValue = unsaved_changes_warning;
        return unsaved_changes_warning;
      }
    });

  })();

对his的修改删除了target[defaultValue]的使用，只使用target。dataset[defaultValue]来存储真实的默认值。

我添加了一个'saved'事件监听器，'saved'事件将由您自己在保存操作成功时触发。

但是这个“通用”的解决方案只适用于浏览器，而不适用于应用程序的webview，例如微信浏览器。

为了使它在微信浏览器(部分)也工作，另一个改进再次:

  'use strict';
  (() => {
    const modified_inputs = new Set();
    const defaultValue = 'defaultValue';
    // store default values
    addEventListener('beforeinput', evt => {
      const target = evt.target;
      if (!(defaultValue in target.dataset)) {
        target.dataset[defaultValue] = ('' + (target.value || target.textContent)).trim();
      }
    });

    // detect input modifications
    addEventListener('input', evt => {
      const target = evt.target;
      let original = target.dataset[defaultValue];

      let current = ('' + (target.value || target.textContent)).trim();

      if (original !== current) {
        if (!modified_inputs.has(target)) {
          modified_inputs.add(target);
        }
      } else if (modified_inputs.has(target)) {
        modified_inputs.delete(target);
      }

      if(modified_inputs.size){
        const event = new Event('needSave')
        window.dispatchEvent(event);
      }
    });

    addEventListener(
      'saved',
      function(e) {
        modified_inputs.clear()
      },
      false
    );

    addEventListener('beforeunload', evt => {
      if (modified_inputs.size) {
        const unsaved_changes_warning = 'Changes you made may not be saved.';
        evt.returnValue = unsaved_changes_warning;
        return unsaved_changes_warning;
      }
    });

    const ua = navigator.userAgent.toLowerCase();

    if(/MicroMessenger/i.test(ua)) {
      let pushed = false

      addEventListener('needSave', evt => {
        if(!pushed) {
          pushHistory();

          window.addEventListener("popstate", function(e) {
            if(modified_inputs.size) {
              var cfi = confirm('确定要离开当前页面嘛？' + JSON.stringify(e));
              if (cfi) {
                modified_inputs.clear()
                history.go(-1)
              }else{
                e.preventDefault();
                e.stopPropagation();
              }
            }
          }, false);
        }

        pushed = true
      });
    }

    function pushHistory() {
      var state = {
        title: document.title,
        url: "#flag"
      };
      window.history.pushState(state, document.title, "#flag");
    }
  })();

var unsaved = false;
$(":input").change(function () {         
    unsaved = true;
});

function unloadPage() {         
    if (unsaved) {             
        alert("You have unsaved changes on this page. Do you want to leave this page and discard your changes or stay on this page?");
    }
} 
window.onbeforeunload = unloadPage;

我做了下面的代码。它可以比较所有字段的变化(除了那些用. ignoredirty类标记的字段)，也可以只比较当前可见的字段。它可以为Javascript添加的新字段重新初始化。因此，我保存的不是表单状态，而是每个控件的状态。

/* Dirty warning for forms */
dirty = (skipHiddenOrNullToInit) => {
    /*  will return True if there are changes in form(s)
        for first initialization you can use both: .dirty(null) or .dirty() (ignore its result)
            .dirty(null) will (re)initialize all controls - in addititon use it after Save if you stay on same page
            .dirty() will initialize new controls - in addititon use it if you add new fields with JavaScript
        then
            .dirty() (or: .dirty(false)) says if data are changed without regard to hidden fields
            .dirty(true) says if data are changed with regard to hidden fields (ie. fields with .d-none or .hidden class)
        controls with .ignoreDirty class will be skipped always
        previous about .d-none, .hidden, .ignoreDirty applies to the control itself and all its ancestors
    */
    let isDirty = false;
    let skipSelectors = '.ignoreDirty';
    if (skipHiddenOrNullToInit) {
        skipSelectors += ', .d-none, .hidden'
    } else if (skipHiddenOrNullToInit === undefined) {
        skipHiddenOrNullToInit = false;
    }
    $('input, select').each(
    function(_idx, el) {
        if ($(el).prop('type') !== 'hidden') {
            let dirtyInit = $(el).data('dirty-init');
            if (skipHiddenOrNullToInit === null || dirtyInit === undefined) {
                try {
                    isChromeAutofillEl = $(el).is(":-webkit-autofill");
                } catch (error) {
                    isChromeAutofillEl = false;
                }
                if (isChromeAutofillEl && $(el).data('dirty-init') === undefined) {
                    setTimeout(function() {  // otherwise problem with Chrome autofilled controls
                        $(el).data('dirty-init', $(el).val());
                    }, 200)
                } else {
                    $(el).data('dirty-init', $(el).val());
                }
            } else if ($(el).closest(skipSelectors).length === 0 && dirtyInit !== $(el).val()) {
                isDirty = true;
                return false; // breaks jQuery .each
            }
        }
    }
    );
    return isDirty;
}

我有额外的Chrome自动填充值的麻烦，因为它很难初始化和已经加载它们。所以我不初始化页面加载，但在任何focusin事件。(但是:也许JavaScript更改控件值仍然存在问题。)我使用下面的代码，我在页面加载调用:

let init_dirty = (ifStayFunc) => {
    /*  ifStayFunc: optional callback when user decides to stay on page
    use .clearDirty class to avoid warning on some button, however:
        if the button fires JavaScript do't use .clearDirty class and instead
            use directly dirty(null) in code - to be sure it will run before window.location */
    $('input, select').on('focusin', function(evt) {
        if (!$('body').data('dirty_initialized')) {
            dirty();
            $('body').data('dirty_initialized', true);
        }
    });
    window.addEventListener('beforeunload', (evt) => {
        if (dirty(true)) {
            if (ifStayFunc) {
                ifStayFunc();
            }
            evt.preventDefault();
            evt.returnValue = '';  // at least Google Chrome requires this
        }
    });
    $('.clearDirty').on('click', function(evt) {
        dirty(null);
    });
};

因此，我将. cleardirty类添加到提供Save的按钮中，这样就可以防止在这种情况下出现警告。 回调ifStayFunc允许我做一些事情，如果用户将停留在页面上，而他是警告。通常我可以显示额外的保存按钮(如果我仍然只看到一些默认/主按钮，这使得安全+SomethingMore -我想允许保存没有这个“SomethingMore”)。
