does any body knows how to open a new IE window and close the favorites tab
and history tab (if tabs enabled)? problem is that when opening new
windows(pop-ups) with absolute size and the user has favorites or history
views enabled then the content in page is wraped and scroll bars appears
everywhere.
thanks,

You mean, 'how can I really annoy a user by taking complete control of their
web browser and hide all of the useful things they purposely had left open?'
Well, you can't. Fortunately. At this time, you can launch a window and hide
the toolbar, but even that is getting tougher to do as newer browsers
prevent such annoying behavior from javascript.
problem is that when opening new
windows(pop-ups) with absolute size and the user has favorites or history
views enabled then the content in page is wraped and scroll bars appears
everywhere.
The better solution is to not force absolute sized designs on the end-user.

Wise? No. I just give a damn about the end user's preferences.

Use a javascript alert. Or a div. Or just load the confirmation in the same
browser window. No need to spawn a new window.
Anyways, I did answer your question. If you want to pop-up a new window, you
can, but there's no way to close the bookmarks pane autoamtically from your
end.
-Darrel
yes I need a new window because the new GridView (ASP.NET 2.0) control
doesnt post back tha value of a hidden column so instead I use a hyperlink
to a page and pass the hidden value in the query string. So you see...there
is a very good reason for a new window...you just didnt know..but every day
we learn something new.

That's not a very good reason. Sounds like a sloppy control and you coming
up with a workaround. Personally, I've found datagrids/gridviews to be so
limiting in their front end presentation (and apparently, their excution
with the gridview) that they aren't worth using.
To each their own, of course. We all skin our cats differently.
Anyways, if you must use a pop-up, fine...just don't expect to be able to
completely control it.
-Darrel
may be you are right. anyway..after this this.Response.W rite("<script
language='javas cript'> {window.close() ;}</script>") I dont have to worry
about favorites or history, just changed from confirmation to non
confirmation window.

Is there any one "add to favorites" code that will work for IE, NS, AOL, and

some of this code is either.

The window.close() method apparently does not work in Mac IE 5.2. I've used
it with no problem in the "big 3" browsers on Mac and Windows, including
Mac IE 5.0, but now in 5.2 it doesn't work. Has anyone else encountered
this? Is there a fix or workaround available? Am I just missing something?

Hey everyone:)
We have a critical problem, which I can see that other people also has ran
into.
In Internet Explorer 7 it is no longer possible to do a window.close after
opening a window,
without getting a alert message that ask if u want to close the window.
This did NOT happen in Internet Explorer 6, Mozilla firefox or other
browsers.

After considerable googling - I mean searching with Google(r) - I
could not find javascript on a button or <a href=... to close a

There seemed to be two techniques for earlier versions. But the

and the
window.open('','_parent','') ;window.close();
techniques do not work for me. I.e., I still get confirmation message
