Thanks.

Ethan:

PHP runs before the browser reads the result. As such, if PHP closed 
the window when it exited, then there would not be an open window for 
the user to see.


I suggest you re-think what you are trying to do. In fact, if you 
simply state what you are trying to do, it might be a better way to 
get our opinion.


Cheers,

If you are trying to do some automation type stuff you might want to look at
something like Robo Task -
http://www.robotask.com/

You can schedule a browser open to specified URL's (php script)  and have it
close the window handle after the page is loaded.
