You will of course need jQuery(http://jquery.com) to run this. This is a jQuery plugin after all
It is quite straightforward. Simplest usage is
$(document).ready(function() {
$("form").formSavior();
});
Use any selector for 'form' or just leave it as is and it will apply the check for all the forms on the page. See, Simple!
The plugin has one option, msg, to customize your message for each form. Its usage is shown below.
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#personInfo").formSavior({
'msg' : 'Personnel information changes have not been saved.'
});
});
