I'm using a java chat server, but being the logout confirmation page is in html, and it opens as a seperate window with the login window behind it, is it possible to auto close the confirmation window after a set time? Without windows asking for closing confirmation.

How do I auto close a web page after 5 seconds?
- Thread starter Usalabs1
- Start date
Code:
Insert the onLoad event handler into your BODY tag
<BODY onLoad="setTimeout(window.close, 5000)">adjust the time to suit from 5000 to whatever.
Sometimes, when my code just won't behave, I take it outside and make it listen to britney spears music, and when it comes back it's really well behaved. I wonder if it's suffering from post tramatic stress syndrome now..

This will close the window with no warning in 5 seconds but only works in IE
Hope it helps.

Code:
<html><head><script>
function bye() {
self.opener=this;
setTimeout(this.close, 5000);
}
</script>
</head>
<BODY onLoad="bye()">
Test
</body>
