Close popup window

ketankshah · Oct 15, 2002

I want to close a popup window which was opened from window A, on onload event of window B. How can I do that?

My code is as below:

WindowA.htm
-----------
<HTML>
<BODY>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" TYPE="text/javascript">

</SCRIPT>
<form action="javascript:gotonext()" method="post">
<input type="Submit" value="OK">
</form>
</BODY>
</HTML>

WindowB.htm
-----------
<HTML>
<BODY onload='window.opener.test.close()'>
Data retrieved
</BODY>

Popup.htm
-----------
<HTML>
<BODY onload='window.opener.test.close()'>
Please Wait ....
</BODY>

<BODY onload='test.close()'>
will work. It doesn't need to be:
<BODY onload='window.opener.test.close()'>

I tried this also but still it is not finding the window test in WindowB.htm and gives error in onload event.

Sorry about the code in popup.htm. There is no onload event in this page. The code is as follows:

Popup.htm
-----------
<HTML>
<BODY>
Please Wait ....
</BODY>
