Self Closing Window

[HellFire]

On my site, I have a search facility, which boots up in a new window, is there anyway to self.close() that window when you click the "go" button, because the "go" button boots another window.

I have searched many sites for a script like this with no luck, could someone point me in the right direction, as I posted a topic similar to this a month or so ago, with no real help on what to do. Thanks, a GOOD explaination of what to do would be much appreciated

Thanks very much, Hell.

I'm no JavaScript expert but I think it's possible to combine the close.window variable with the open.window variable. Not sure though

Ask a JS pro.. Don't know one though..

Don't know personally, but I'd be VERY surprised to hear that this can't be done...

DynaMike (I think) knows JavaScript pretty well...any thoughts, Mike?

Put this in your code for the button.

<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">code/font><HR><pre>
onClick="javascript:window.close();submit=true;"
[/code]

How then could the

<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">code/font><HR><pre>

onClick="javascript:window.close();submit=true";

[/code]

be incorperated around a search applet, so that when you were to click the applet "launch" button, the window would close?

here is the applet code I am using:

<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">code/font><HR><pre>

&lt;applet name="Search" archive="search/search.jar" code="SearchApplet4ech.class" width="100" height="40"&gt;
&lt;param name="TIMED" value="true"&gt;
&lt;param name="RESOURCE.FILE" value="search/out.txt"&gt;
&lt;param name="TARGET" value="_blank"&gt;

[/code]

Thanks, Hell.
