Closing a window without confirmation

[orbitalsatan]

Hi..

This is probably a simple one for most.....

I am trying to close a window with a window.close(); command
and i keep getting the " Windows is trying to close the window"
confirmation message.....is there any way i can force it to close
without confirmation??

Simply no


It is something to do with the history, if the window opens and there is nothing in the history then you will get the confirmation alert

try this but be sure of its consequences. users may be annoyed by it.

window.opener = top;
window.close()
