Can somebody tell me how you can close the open browser window when you click a button?

with javascript:

on (press){
getURL('javascript:top.close()')
}

or something like that.. Victor

That'll work!
But the user will get a warning and a choice not to close it!

As far as I know the only way a script such as javascript:window.close() will close a browser window without asking the user if he really wants to do that is if it is a popup window. Ya' Gotta Love It!

Jeff,
I don't think it's really a question of the window being a popup or not... It's more a question of that call being made in and about to close your main browser window!

...If that makes any sense to you!

well, there IS a workaround in IE but i don't think it would match Nev's demands.. Victor
