"window.close()" Won't Close My Popup Window In Most Browsers

Apr 7, 2010

- 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.

Close Child Window When Parent Window Closes?

May 3, 2009

I'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.

Close Window Function

Jul 23, 2005

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

Open A New Window, Then Close The Old One

May 17, 2006

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?

How To Close A Window In FireFox?

Sep 12, 2006

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.

No Confirmation Window.close In IE7

Nov 9, 2006

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?

How To Close A Child Window?

Jul 20, 2005

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');

</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();
}

Need To Close Main Window

Jul 20, 2005

What I'd like to add is add a line of code that will close the calling
parent window (right now I make it visible by resizing it and clicking on a
close link). I'll even settle for having to confirm the closure but, the
ultimate would be that it would close by itself. Code:

Close Window Problem

Jul 20, 2005

I was wonder if anyone out there could shed some light on a problem I am
having. I'm having trouble getting a javascript "window.close()" method
to work when running over a shared SSL connection. Additionally, my
"history.back()" function is exhibiting the same behavior. Everything
works fine when I am not running over the shared SSL. These scripts are
sourced in. I have tried different incantation of both the "close
window" and the "back button" functions ( close(), self.close(),
this.window.close(), history.go(-1), etc) to no avail.

var left = (screen.width/2)-(800/2);[code].....

I even get the alert mentioning "E-Mail Sent Successfully".But simply the window is not closed.
