JavaScripts may effect any page whose URL shares the same domain, in essence. So a JavaScript on a site page could detect whether a page has been previously loaded and close it. I would say that it is unlikely a cookie issue as the JavaScript approach is easier and less error prone. You may also want to consider *why* the site is doing this. They may be using window names or id's that must be unique for the site to function properly, and circumventing it could cause unexpected issues. HTH, Keary Suska Esoteritech, Inc.
