Topic awaiting preservation: stop a running function

hi ho!

i´ve got this problem: i want the user to confirm if he really want to leave the page or not. leaving the page is not the problem. my problem is that i can´t stop/leave/break the function to stay at the site without reloading it.

<script language="JavaScript">

function check() {

	var msg = "\nDo you really \n" + "want to leave?";

	if (confirm(msg)) {

		location.replace('goSomwhere');

	}

	else {

		// leave/break this function and stay

		// break; - does not work

	}	

}

</script>

i hope someone could help me or could give me a hint.
