Close Child Window via Parent using setTimeout

[Melanie Cohl]

I would like to close a child window I opened from the parent using setTimout. I have tried these functions below, i succeed to open the window, but failed in closing it using the setTimeout function:

function 1

var sendWin;
function sendWindow() {
sendWin = window.open("http://www.google.fr");
setTimeout("if (sendWin && !senWin.closed) sendWin.close()", 10000);
}

function 2

function sendWindow() {
var sendWin = window.open("http://www.google.fr");
setTimeout(function() {
if (sendWin && !senWin.closed) sendWin.close();
}, 10000);
}

    var sendWin;
    function sendWindow() {
    sendWin = window.open("http://www.google.fr");
    setTimeout("if (sendWin && !senWin.closed) sendWin.close()", 10000);
    }

!!! Use the error console !!!!!(40 chars)

(Responding to pm for clarification)

You wrote senWin instead of sendWin as highlighted in my reply. This would have generated an error message in the console, thus making the problem clear.
