Re: [flexcoders] Looking for a consistent way to close the current browser window in Flex
Define better. To me, I'd use the _javascript_ Flash Integration Kit that MM put out, and call proxy.call("closeWindow");. Integrates nicer into code than getURL, works on more browsers, and you can get a callback if need be. http://www.osflash.org/doku.php?id=flashjs - Original Message - From: Jeff Steiner To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Sent: Thursday, July 21, 2005 11:49 AM Subject: RE: [flexcoders] Looking for a consistent way to close the current browser window in Flex Is there a better way of doing this?

Re: [flexcoders] Looking for a consistent way to close the current browser window in Flex
yep... can't close a dialog in firefox with _javascript_ unless the user has his browser set up to do that... which is not the default.. in IE unless the window was opened with _javascript_ you'll get a prompt saying a script is trying to close the window... do you want to let it do that... if the window is opened with js it will close it automatically with no prompt On 7/20/05, Tracy Spratt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: See if this makes any difference: getURL("_javascript_:window.opener=self; window.close();"); And I only use IE. There are likely browser issues.
