Hi All,

I am currently using the following script to close a window;

<a href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="self.close();return false;"><img src="CLOSE.gif"></a>

When the page is closed a message box pops up asking: "The web page you are viewing is trying to close the window, Do you want to close the window?"

Is there a switch that can be used in the script to automatically select "yes"???

(I Know nothing about JavaScript)!!!!


Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

You get the warning because you trying to close a normal browser window. You need to open the window
as a JavaScript popup.

Try the following:

onclick="window.opener = self; window.close()"

The dialog pops up because the opener property of the window is null.
Setting the opener property to self suppresses the dialog.
