that snippet didn't work in either NS or IE for me....

IE didn't even load the page and NS bombed because it said that closes 
was
not defined

i just pasted that snippet into a page.

is there something else that needs to be done?

Subject:  RE: Closing a window from JS without prompt?


I have an app that opens up a window full screen and then I need to
close the parent window that is behind it. So what I did was added th
e
object code below to the head and then refresh the parent window with
the onload function that initiates and closes the parent window. Work
s
like a champ for me. You might have to play around with it depending 
on
your need.

<html>
<head>
     <title>Untitled</title>
     <!--- // Must have this in the head // --->
     <object id="closes" type="application/x-oleobject
classid="clsid:adb880a6-d8ff-11cf-9377-00aa003b7a11">
          <param name="Command" value="Close">
     </object>
</head>

<script>
function closeme() {
     closes.Click();
}
</script>


<body onload="document.form.CloseArea.focus();">

<form>
     <input type="text" name="CloseArea" onfocus="closeme()"
style="width: 0px;">
</form>

</body>
</html>

Subject: OT: Closing a window from JS without prompt?

I'm looking for ideas on how to close a Parent window from Javascript
without getting the confirmation prompt.
We don't have an issue with any child windows, but we open an interface

to
our app then want to close the original window without the prompt.

Any tips?  Thanks in advance.
