It is not automatic. The button just dispatches the close event. You need to define a close event handler. And in that do PopUpmanager.removePopUp(this).
Though more often, I just dispatch a custom named event, and have in a listener/handler in the component that created the popup, and in that handler, I get what data I need from the popup on close, like status(ok, cancel) and value if any, then call PopUpmanager.removePopUp(event.target).

Each has the showCloseWindow attribute set to "true," and sure enough, the button is there. But it won't close the window when clicked. ????? -- Thanks, Tom Tom McNeer MediumCool http://www.mediumco <http://www.mediumcool.com> ol.com 1735 Johnson Road NE Atlanta, GA 30306 404.589.0560
