The URL specified in the blah of onload="window.open(blah)" can be an
ASP page.

call a function containing
self.close()

This might be triggered by loading/writing a new page when the asp
script has run.
You have to decide what event you will use for this.

self.opener.focus()
This would have to come before
self.close()
or there would be no window in which the script could run!
