Closing browser window on click 3

[boatdrinks]

I am using this code to close the browser window when button2 is clicked, but it only works after I click the button twice. I have tried putting it in the Page_Load, and in the If(Not Ispostback) and If(Ispostback). I have also tried putting it in the Sub button2_click, which runs a few other things and still the same problem.

Button2.Attributes.Add("onClick", "javascript:self.close();")

Have you checked the HTML output to see if the script is being rendered before you actually click the button? If not, check the HTML once the page loads - don't do anything else.

This is the html


<input type="submit" name="button2" value=" Assign " onclick="javascript:self.close();if (typeof(Page_ClientValidate) == 'function') Page_ClientValidate(); " language="javascript" id="button2" />

Ok,

Is there a reason that you have "if (typeof(Page_ClientValidate) == 'function') Page_ClientValidate();" in there?

Try taking that out... see if it works. Also, I'm assuming that this is a pop-up window, not the root window? If you're trying to close the root window, you may run into problems.

Have you tried window.close? if main window it will state "are you sure" if a "popup" it will just close it

the correct version would be:

Button2.Attributes.Clear();
Button2.Attributes.Add("onClick", "try { window.opener = this; window.close();} catch (e) {};");
