Save this as close.html

Open your Netscape 7 browser and then open this html file and click on
close button, it will not close the browser in Netscape but working
with Internet Explorer.

My Question is if the window is not being opened by the javascript,
then how to close the window by the Netscape ?

Is there any solution to this ?

Any help is appreciated.

Regards
Asit

Check your Netscape 7 JavaScript console, it will probably show you a
message that script tried to close a window that it is not allowed to close.
As far as I know there is nothing you can do about that, with Netscape 4
you could use signed script to request the privilege to close the window
but that doesn't seem to be supported by Netscape 7.

This only works in Internet Explorer because of a bug.
You are not supposed to be able to close a window that
you didn't open with script.

The user certainly knows how to close his browser.

Correct.

Correct. That's what MSDN says too. And even if a window was opened by
javascript, an user should be able to refuse that a script can close at
will the window (just as much as user setting, popup blocking software
can prevent scripts from opening new windows at will).

NS 7.2 and Mozilla-based browsers have
dom.allow_scrip ts_to_close_win dows user pref setting which is entirely
under the control of users.
The user certainly knows how to close his browser.

problems detecting a window

Hi, My question is this : how do I detect from another window which didn't create a new window whether it exists ? For example, is there a window-id's container of some sort that hangs around that I can interrogate ? I would like to find a better way of doing the following. I have a window (call it Win) that creates a new window (call it Win2) using window.open().

I fear this may be a FAQ - in which case my apologies - but I've failed to track the answer down. I want to close a window from another window it opened.

Opening image in new window without padding

Can I make this happen with a single call to a window.open function? I would prefer not to create a separate HTML page. So far all I have is the basic var cwin = window.open('images/KJV-THANKS.gif', 'Thanks', 'width=243,height=420,'); cwin.focus();
