Forum:Locked pages try to kick me when I view the source

This is really wierd. I try to view the source to copy some stuff. As soon as I press "View Source" button, and the page loads, I get this window pop-up message from Chrome:

Title: Confirm navigation Message: You have made some unpublished edits. Are you sure you want to leave without publishing them? Are you sure you want to leave this page? 2 buttons: "Leave this page" and "Stay on this page".

If I press "Stay on this page", it pops the message again and again after a few seconds.

If I press "Leave this page", it pops again several times and after ~4th time closes the page.

How do I ask pages not pop this dialog every time?

I am using Chromium 20.0.1132.47, this happnes only in locked pages, for example here: http://amazingspiderman.wikia.com/wiki/Spider-Man?action=edit

 * Mkay. Any idea why this happnes? voice (talk) 07:57, October 21, 2012 (UTC)


 * Interesting. That's a bug, you should report it. It's happening because the editor is trying to start in Visual mode but it can't since the page is locked; instead of starting in source mode or switching to source mode automatically it just screws up and tries to navigate away.

 * This actually happens to me too. I'll try it in general Internet Explorer. Lilly Lovegood(2)(Talk)

Further details - This seems to be browser specific: doesn't happen in Firefox. Will do more testing under windows. voice (talk) 10:04, October 21, 2012 (UTC)
