[Javascript] closing windows

Tue Jun 5 07:18:23 CDT 2001

If the window that you are trying to close is not a window that you opened
via your script, you will get the dialog from the IE browser as a security
measure when your script tries to close the window.

Use self.close() in the parent window, instead.

Hi,
   I have a window that opens another window. When the second window is
opened i want the first window to close. It works but in IE it displays a
little confirm message saying "The Web page you are viewing is trying to
close the window Do you want to close the window?"

Does anyone know how to stop this message displaying?

Regards,

Andrew
