Re: Witango-Talk: detecting browser close

can that be used for a window that is already created?  My problem is that we have a minor issue with users not logging out and so their user$ vars stay in memory, taking up space it doesnt need to keep and i was hoping i could trap when they closed the window to preform the "log out" code.

Alan,
There most certainly is. In the following js code the var newWindow is declared as a global variable so that it can be accessed outside of the function it was declared in.
[script language ="javascript"]
var newWindow
function makeNewWindow() {
        newWindow = window.open(" "," ","height=300,Width=300")
}
function closeNewWindow() {
        if (newWindow) {
         newWindow.close()
}
[/script]
