I tried using <body onBlur=&quot;window.close();&quot;> in a pop-up window created by window.open() but but the onBlur does not always activate immediately - can I use onFocus in the parent window? How do I close a window that is not the window that the window.close command is coming from? window.close(&quot;popupname&quot;) does not seem to work.

Anyone know a solution? That would be super!

OOPS nevermind, figured it out... ;)

I just had to make the window an object:
popupwin = window.open(...);

and also:
onFocus = &quot;popwin.close()&quot;;
