Sorry I forgot to name the form. I just tried this and it works on IE. <html> <head> <title>Untitled</title> <!--- // Must have this in the head // ---> <object id="closes" type="application/x-oleobject" classid="clsid:adb880a6-d8ff-11cf-9377-00aa003b7a11"> <param name="Command" value="Close"> </object> </head>
<script> function closeme() { closes.Click(); } </script> <body onload="document.form.CloseArea.focus();"> <form name="form"> <input type="text" name="CloseArea" onfocus="closeme()" style="width: 0px;"> </form> </body> </html> -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, February 27, 2002 1:28 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Closing a window from JS without prompt? that snippet didn't work in either NS or IE for me.... IE didn't even load the page and NS bombed because it said that closes was not defined i just pasted that snippet into a page. is there something else that needs to be done?

I have an app that opens up a window full screen and then I need to close the parent window that is behind it. So what I did was added th e object code below to the head and then refresh the parent window with the onload function that initiates and closes the parent window. Work s like a champ for me. You might have to play around with it depending on your need. <html> <head> <title>Untitled</title> <!--- // Must have this in the head // ---> <object id="closes" type="application/x-oleobject classid="clsid:adb880a6-d8ff-11cf-9377-00aa003b7a11"> <param name="Command" value="Close"> </object> </head> <script> function closeme() { closes.Click(); } </script> <body onload="document.form.CloseArea.focus();"> <form> <input type="text" name="CloseArea" onfocus="closeme()" style="width: 0px;"> </form> </body> </html> -----Original Message----- From: Shawn Grover [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, February 27, 2002 1:04 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: OT: Closing a window from JS without prompt? I'm looking for ideas on how to close a Parent window from Javascript without getting the confirmation prompt. We don't have an issue with any child windows, but we open an interface to our app then want to close the original window without the prompt. Any tips? Thanks in advance.
