You should not be able to do this unless you are in a secure, signed,
scripting environment. Period.
What you are asking invades the user's privacy. When you close the parent,
you lose all their page history information -- this is why the confirmation
message appears. The confirmation message will always appear if you
programmatically try to close a window that the user opened.
I am a bit shocked that the code you give doesn't launch a confirmation
message in IE and Netscape 6-7. You must have your user privacy settings
lower in those browsers.
