What Im trying to figure out is a simple (im a noob) way to close a browser window that was opened by a button on another page and not get the warning window "you are about to close..".
Ive been hunting around here and the web but I cant find anything solid.
Can someone direct me to the solution?
i have written this peice of code:
<input type="Submit" name="Close" value="Close Window" onClick="javascript:window.close();" />
<a href="C:Documents and Settingsdavid.RSHMAINDesktopclose.htm" onclick="return openContextualHelpWindow(this.href);" target="helpwin">Condition</a>
When i click on the close button, i get a message asking me wether i want to close the window or not, when i click the link and open up the same page in a different window, i can click close, and it will do it. My question is this: Can i load a page up straight away, asif i have clicked the link?
I want to close an internet explorer window without the warning popup. Im running ie 8 how would i do that cause when i use window.close() function it pops up with that warning.

Here's the code pasted above which I am using but it only works in IE. I know the issue is because of window.events and ClientX/ClientY. my code to make it work in all browsers? This is very urgent and have been striving since 3 days...
*Please Note: Current code is working in IE only and to check you have to close the browser window or refresh the page with mouse click

View 4 Replies View Related- I have a button on my Flash site that opens an HTML page in a popup window. In Flash, I open the new window using Actiosnscript 2.0:
- Within the popup window are links to other HTML pages. They all open in the same window. I've been using the following to create the links in Dreamweaver:
- On each page, I have a "Return to Main Menu" button that should close the popup window. To do this, I have been using:
- The problem is that it works differently in each browser, and I can't even get it to consistently close the window in most browsers:
Internet Explorer = popup message appears, asking "Are you sure you want to close this window?" or something similar; window closes after clicking "Yes."
Safari = Only closes if I'm on the original HTML page. If I click on any of the other links (note that these all open in the same window), those pages' "Return to Main Menu" buttons cease to work. However, if I keep clicking "Back" until I get to the original page, it closes.
Opera = Button actually works for each page.
Firefox & Chrome = Does not close the window at all.
I looked into it and saw that others have used a window.opener to solve similar issues. But, since my popup window is opened using Flash/AS2, I need to find a way around it.
I've tried preceding "window.close()" with "window.opener=null" (i.e. -onClick="window.opener=null; window.close()"), but I don't think I'm doing it right because it still doesn't work.
I've also seen others use codes that involve functions and variables, but it is beyond my current coding knowledge to implement this. Like I said, I'm sort of new at this.
I need a script that will open a new window (popup / new link) in a specific size, but will also close the old window (where the popup came from). I know the popup window is easy but finding a work-able close window script as the new window is opened is impossible!!
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have an HTML page where I am opening a child window using window.open. the child window is something like yahoo.com. I want to refresh the parent window when the child window is closed.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to create code to close the child window I'm creating if the parent window is closed. Here's my code so far:
function openWindow() {
var newWin = window.open(); // open the new window
newWin.document.write('<h1>Child Window</h1>
[Code]...
The above openWindow function is used in this event: <input type="button" name="btn" onclick="openWindow()"value="Open a new window" />
I can generate the new window fine. I just can't close it if the parent window is closed.

This is working fine. My problem is how to close this window from other pages on the website.
I have tried:

I need a popup window to close after 10 seconds. I have 2 ideas, and
neither work.
<META HTTP-EQUIV='Refresh' CONTENT=ཆ
URL=javascript:this.window.close()'>
or...

<!-- Begin
function closeWin() {
window.close();

I urgently need a piece of JS that will close the window when a user clicks a button.
Using window.close works but it gives an alert box to ask the user if they want to close the window. Is there a way around this?
i have this function that closes a window
function closeAll() {
if (myWin && myWin.open && !myWin.closed)
{
myWin.close();
}
}
how do i work in antoher window in there "myOtherWin" so that when this function is called both windows are closed myWin and myOtherWin, regardless which or both are opened?
<script for="window" event="onbeforeunload">
alert('Im closing');
</script>
I have created a form. Within the form is a button to close the window
on click and to validate as well. The close window works when it is a
stand alone, but it does not work when it is embedded with the other
code. Here is the code I am currently using:
<p><font face="Trebuchet MS">
<input type="submit" value="Send" name="B1"
"MM_validateForm('Manager
Name','','R','Managers Extension','','R','Department','','R');return
document.MM_returnValue">
<input type="reset" value="Clear" name="B2">
</font></p>
Trying to make a script function that opens a new window with a new
location, and then closes the old window. My function looks like this:
<script language="javascript">
function deletecook()
{
new_win = window.open('http://www.blahblahblah.com/')
window.close()
}
</script>
But it doesn't close any windows, not even the one it just opened. Any
takers?
I've a button that onclick calls a function that calls the following
code. The last 3 lines are for IE, which didn't want to close till I
put in the funny line with opener.
window.parent.focus();
window.close();
window.opener = window;
window.close();
window.parent.focus();
This closes a window in IE, but in FireFox an odd thing happens. I have
to mouseout of something before it closes. If I click the button and
then leave the mouse sitting there, above the button, then nothing
happens in FireFox. It's as if the code is broken.
I did originally have window.blur in their, instead of parent.focus.
But I took it out a while ago and did shift-refresh in FireFox.
Is there a better way than this in IE7 for an Intranet page on a
trusted site to close a non-script opened window?
var WshShell = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell");
WshShell.SendKeys("{ENTER}");
window.close();
Is there any kind of registry change that we can roll out on our LAN
that will allow window's to close themselves in Javascript for IE7?
I installed a script which opened a window in a predefined format.
It works fine!
I want to know if it is possible to close that screen with java.
(however, the code should be in the childpage)
I have a form which uploads a file from client to server written in PHP.
When the user presses the submit button, I use the "onSubmit" event to
execute javascript to open a child window containing some text and an
animated GIF. The javascript returns 'True' and the file is uploaded. All of
that works great.
Problem:
Now I am trying to close the child window after the file has been uploaded.
Below is the JavaScript I'm using:
Observations:
Error Msg: "progress is undefined".
I have observed that after form submission the 'if' statement in the 'close
child window' code fails because the handle 'progress' appears to have no
value. My guess is that on form submission the handle 'progress' looses its'
value because the action for the form is to reload itself. The 'if' staement
does execute because I have placed an 'alert' statement just prior to it an
the 'alert' executed appropriately.
If I try to open the window after submitting the form, the page doesn't open
until after the file has been uploaded, which defeats the purpose.
Question:
How do I close the window after the form has been submitted?
Thanks for your help!
Irvin.

To open the child window:
<script language="javascript">
var progress=null;
function sendfile() {
progress=window.open('test2.htm','progress','width =350,height=475');
return true;
}
</script>
To close the child window:
This code follows my PHP code that verifies the file upload.
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
if (progress && !progress.closed) {
progress.close();
}
</script>
