Javascript not executing on "Save and Close"

I have some custom javascript on a form that executes on change of the "Created On" field. I did it this way because I only wanted this particular function to execute once, on creation of the record, and not on save. This works great when the user fills out the form, then clicks "Save", but it does not execute if the user clicks "Save and Close". Does anyone know a way to handle this issue? Thanks in advance for any help.

RE: Javascript not executing on "Save and Close"

Are you checking form type and getSaveMode within JavaScript?

Xrm.Page.ui.getFormType();

as well as Save mode as used in AutoSave prevent script.

function preventAutoSave(econtext) {
    var eventArgs = econtext.getEventArgs();
    if (eventArgs.getSaveMode() == 70 || eventArgs.getSaveMode() == 2) {
        eventArgs.preventDefault();
    }
}
