Thank you all very much for your input and time. I¹m working on an intranet
application so I¹m not worried about security for the user¹s browser. Jann do
you know how this would be done in a secure, signed, scripting environment? If
you do can you please email me an example if you have one handy otherwise I
found a work around for my issue so I can put an end to this thread.

Hello All:
JavaScript Question
I need to have JavaScript code work for Netscape 4.7 to open a child
window and close the parent and bypass the confirm message. [snip]
You should not be able to do this unless you are in a secure, signed,
scripting environment. Period.
What you are asking invades the user's privacy. When you close the parent,
you lose all their page history information -- this is why the confirmation
message appears. The confirmation message will always appear if you
programmatically try to close a window that the user opened.
I am a bit shocked that the code you give doesn't launch a confirmation
message in IE and Netscape 6-7. You must have your user privacy settings
lower in those browsers.
Can someone
please send me an example?
This code works in IE and Netscape 6-7 but not Netscape 4.7
!--- SCRIPT LANGUAGE = JavaScript
{
newwin=window.open(Login.cfm,_blank,... )
firstwindow = window.self;
firstwindow.opener = window.self;
firstwindow.close();
newwin.focus()

RE: Javascript Signed Scripting Re: window.close question?
I'll re-post this because it was about 4am when I posted and you may
have missed this. You CAN do this without a signed script:
Just change the window opener's reference to TOP and then you can close
it.
script window.open('popup.html','popWin','width=300,height=300');
window.opener=top;
window.close();
/script
This doesn't work on IE5 or Netscape 4.7x but it works on all other
IE/NS variations.
I saw this link yesterday while looking for some ActionScript reference.

Actually, you CAN do this without needing to change security settings.
Just change the window opener's reference to TOP and then you can close
it.

self.close()
