Help: How to close window

[chaneyj1]

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone knows how I can close a window from a page that didn't create the window.

As in.

Page 'A' opens a new window called 'B', then page 'A' does a redirect to page 'C'. From 'C' I need to close page 'B'.

I haven't been successful because once I redirect to 'C' I loose the object reference to page 'B'.

Any ideas?


Thanks in advance,

Jeremie

Once you do the redirect to page c from a you lose any conection to the new window. As far as know there is no way through JavaScript to close the new window from the main window when you redirect.

I found that all I have to do is open the new window again in the page and then do a close(). If you do a open and the window is already open is just does a refresh but gives you a reference to the window object.

Works perfect. Thanks.
