You cannot make it invisible nor disable it. You can just alert. – Kévin Bibollet May 07 '19 at 09:42

2It sounds like you're trying to make a site full of annoying ads and trying to prevent users from leaving. – K. P. May 07 '19 at 09:45

@K.P. maybe, but maybe he / she just wants to prevent users from navigating using the back button to keep internal states of the wepapp – messerbill May 07 '19 at 09:46

window.onbeforeunload = function() { return "Your work will be lost."; };
will at least provide a warning, but it is not guaranteed because all browsers behave differently.
