I created a prototype.js/window.js "Window" pseudo window div with another page from the same directory loaded in its iframe I could not put a button/link on the iframe doc that would close it by calling functions in the parent window
I used "window.parent" "parent" alone "top" but the only thing I could access from the iframe was the window.parent.location property I ended up constructing the Window by writing the content to it from the main page, not loading a url in the iframe
But it bugs me that I couldn't access the parent window functions (or anything, getElementById didn't work either, so Window method $('Window_ID').close() wouldn't work either)
I have a HTML and I am opening another link in a separate window using window.open() . The child window is something like 'http://yahoo.com' which is out side html. I need to refresh the parent window when the child window is closed.
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!!
I 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.
I have parent page with 10 child window and i want to close all child window when click on close session button on parent but first i need to check whether any child window open or not after that action should be done for close the child window.
I have a product that has many features. Clicking on a feature opens a popup window with explanation. There is a js Close Window link in each. All is fine so far.
Now in one popup window there is a reference to a different page of the main website. Is it possible to have a single text link both CLOSE the popup AND go to a new page in the parent window?
I want to close all child window with parent window. First i want to detect whether any child window open if open then it should be close after click close button on parent window.
- 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 want to trap the window.close() event when the user clicks on the close button of the browser using javascript. Can anyone shed light on this problem ?
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?
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?
I've searched Google etc. for ages! and cannot see resource on how to close the SuperBox model window via a button and/or a link from within the model - for example - within an iframe model.[URL].. I know there is the "link" at the top of the model which will close the model "window", but I would like the choice to close it via a button and/or link within the iframe model...
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:
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.
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.
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. ________________
Javascrtip Code: ________________
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> ________________
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:
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.
I have a basic insert form to add items to a product database. It opens as a pop-up window from a different form so that my sales reps can add items to the database if they are not there without having to back track. I want to have a close window option for when they are done.here is what I have so far:
