Closing the window

Hi All,

How can I prevent the user from closing the window? I need some how to
prevent the user from closing the window even if he tried to close it
from the (X) button in the top right of the window?
How can I do that???

thanks

regards,

Mohammed

Don't let them open it, then they can't close it.

Remove the page. Then they can't open it so they can't close it.

You can't. Stop trying to dictate to me, the user, how I can or can not
use my browser.
