From: FAQ server on 21 Apr 2010 19:00 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- FAQ Topic - How do I close a window and why does it not work on the first one? ----------------------------------------------------------------------- If a window was opened by javascript, then it can be closed without confirmation by using ` windowRef.close() `. Before calling ` windowRef.close() ` (or other ` window ` methods), make sure the window reference is not null and its ` closed ` property is ` false `. Popup windows cause usability problems and are generally best avoided. http://www.useit.com/alertbox/990530.html http://jibbering.com/faq/#isWindowOpen http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms536367%28VS.85%29.aspx https://developer.mozilla.org/en/DOM/window.close#Description http://docs.sun.com/source/816-6408-10/window.htm#1201822 The complete comp.lang.javascript FAQ is at http://jibbering.com/faq/ -- The sendings of these daily posts are proficiently hosted by http://www.pair.com. |
