Hi:
Thanks for your answer but I had some trouble implementing.
I changed the event onLoad by the event OnUnload and when I try to add the
getURL action in flash without a parameter, flash returns an error message
because the parameter is required so I used "".
My html has:
<html>
<head>
<title>Close Window</title>
</head>
<!--This file is just a hack to just make the window close itself-->
<BODY ONUNLOAD="top.close()">
</body>
</html>
And my flash file has
on(release){
getURL("");
}
But this failed. Did I do a mistake implementing your solution?
Thanks
Carolina Avila

Sometimes this fails due to security settings on the browser - for example,
if the window that holds Flash was not spawned by Javascript, then the
window is not allowed to close itself - other cases javascript like this
will fail completely. As long as Javascript is allowed in some form on the
end user's browser, then what we do which works everytime is create an HTML
file that has this in it:
<html>
<head>
<title>Close Window</title>
</head>
<!--This file is just a hack to just make the window close itself-->
<BODY ONLOAD="top.close()">
</body>
</html>
Then, make your button in Flash do a getURL() to that file (Do NOT specify
a target param) - the Flash file will navigate away from it's own HTML file,
and the new HTML file will close itself. So to the user, the Flash file
closes itself, even though in reality it just navigated away and another
file does the closing.

Subject: [Flashcoders] window.close() doesn't work in player 7.0.69
Hi:
My client and his employees have flash player version 7.0.69
I tried with a new movie with only a button and the button
has the code:
on(release){
getURL("javascript:top.window.close();");
}
Then I tried with a new javascript funcion and with
fscommand as you suggest in all emails in the list about
close window, but It doesn't work. I tested in flash player
7.0.19 and 8 and 9 and it works. But the client needs the
movie works on 7.0.69 with IE and I couldn't find the issue.
I aprecciate if you can help me.
I uplodad the flash player 7.0.69 installer in my server.
