When you open a new window (tab or not) via window.open it runs under the security context of a popup window, this means you can safely use window.close to close it. However you cannot use window.close on a normal window.tab (IIRC some browsers provide an advanced setting to change this behaviour).
Usually it is best to redirect to a "thank you, you have been logged out" page rather than trying to close the window skar wrote: > Hi Matt, >> I was under the impression you wanted to use the same window? >> >> If so you can do window.location = newURL >> > Thanks for the tip.
