Hi :),

Thanks in Advance, to anyone who can help me in my problem.

My Problem is,

I have a function which opens up child windows

function openNewWin(strWinName) // function to open a new window...
{
noOfWin ++;
winArray[noOfWin] = window.open(strWinName, '', strWinProp);
}

and a corresponding function to close all these opened windows.

function closeAll() // function to close all the window opened using the current window...
{
for(i = 0; i <= noOfWin; i++)
{
if(window.winArray != null && !winArray.window.closed)
{
alert(winArray.name);
winArray.window.close();
}
}
noOfWin = -1;
}

I call the close function in the onUnLoad of the BODY tag of the main window.

This works fine, if I open a few windows and before closing any of the child windows. If I close any one of the child windows. The script for closing the window stops and gives a message &quot;The callee (server [not server application]) is not available and disappeared; all connections are invalid. The call did not execute.&quot;

Thanks for your time.

Thank you,
Elvis Dinesh

The check should be:
if(window.winArray != null && !window.winArray.closed)
not as typed:
if(window.winArray != null && !winArray.window.closed)
