There is a security restriction in JS. You cannot do a JS close on a browser window if it is not a JS child window. We got around this by changing the Opener of the calling window.
For example: In Index.cfm: window.open(page2.cfm); In Page2: self.parent.opener = self; self.parent.close(); I'm not looking at the code for this right now, so might have the details wrong, but I know the concept works. Good Luck.

I don't want the toolbar, menubar etc..etc to appear. I just want the page loaded into a window without all that crud. How can I do this...JS with the code below? 'toolbar=no,directories=no,status=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,resizable=yes, width=290,height=200') I can't get this to work properly. It open my index.cfm file in another window without all the crud at the top but then a dialog pops up asking if I want to the this window? Below is the code for my "load.cfm" page which on the OnLoad loads my index.cfm file. <head> <title></title> <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> <!-- Begin function popupPage() { var page = "index.cfm"; windowprops = "height=620,width=720,location=no," + "scrollbars=yes,menubars=no,toolbars=no,resizable=yes"; window.open(page, "Popup", windowprops); } // End --> </script> </head> <BODY onLoad="setTimeout('popupPage()', 1000);"> <script> setTimeout("self.close()", 2000 ) </script> </body> +--------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------+ Philip Humeniuk [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] +--------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------+ ______________________________________________________________________ Signup for the Fusion Authority news alert and keep up with the latest news in ColdFusion and related topics. http://www.fusionauthority.com/signup.cfm FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
