Can I close the browser window when I run a form?

Hi,
I'm running forms using SeparateFrame=TRUE, but the browser windows remains in background, could I close it before exiting the form?
thanks

See my code in this thread:
9i Browser Fun!
You may be able to do this via Javascript.

When a website launches a new window to enter information, Firefox no longer automatically closes the window when you click the submit button. Why?

For example, when I create a message in my autoresponder service and want to attach an image a new window opens up so I can enter the details of the image (url, position, alt text). When I click the Save button, the information is captured but the window remains open and I have to manually close it.
Firefox used to close the window automatically.

YES!! Thank you jscher2000! You sir are a legend. Thanks for this, changed the newtaburl in about:config, totally worked. Nope, never saw it happening! Speedy machine this one :P Yep, that change completely sorted the issue, just opened about 741 new tabs through the shortcut on my mouse just to celebrate. Thanks guys who helped, no thanks those who didn't.

Firefox closes existing window when you open and close a new window

When I'm using firefox and need to open a new window (or a website opens a new window) and I'm done with that new window and close it, Firefox attempts to also close the previous window that I am using. I've tried reinstalling, but other than that I don't know what to do. What usually happens when I close the window is that I have multiple tabs open in the other one and it asks me if I would like to close all my tabs. When I hit cancel, it asks me again. Once I hit cancel the second time it stops bothering me.

I thought it was doing that also. But I found that if I start a new chat with someone I was messaging before, then the old messages re-appear in the messages window.

Getting hang/crash problem when I try to close browser window from applet

I have a small Apllet that has a button that calls a Javascript function in the opening window, to close the window in which it is loaded.
The Applet window is a PopUp window from one of my application's window. First time I start my application and load that Applet the button works fine. It calls the Javascript method and the Method closes the window using the self.close() method.
But now if I open the applet window again and click on the button to close the windows, it hangs. I put in trace statements and saw that it hangs on JSObject.getWindow() window.
I am using JDK Plugin 1.4.2_07 and 5.0 , if I work out on IE browser, it works fine.But when I use firefox or mozilla it gives problem of hanging/crashing.
Note that in case of 1.4.2_07 this problem experienced some times but in case of 5.0 it gives always for other than IE browser.
Please, if somebody could give me some clue about why this would happen, I will really appreciate that. and code related to this is given below
import javax.swing.JApplet;
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import netscape.javascript.JSObject;
public class TestApplet extends JApplet implements ActionListener{
protected JButton closeButton = null;
protected JSObject win = null;
private JFrame frame = null;
private boolean alreadyClosed = false;
public void init(){
this.win = JSObject.getWindow(this);
this.closeButton = new JButton("Close Browser Window");
this.add(this.closeButton);
this.closeButton.addActionListener(this);
frame = new JFrame("Test Frame");
frame.setSize(300, 400);
frame.addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter() {
public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e) {
System.out.println("windowClosing");
alreadyClosed = true;
TestApplet.this.stop();
frame.show();
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae){
stop();
public void stop() {
if (!alreadyClosed) {
alreadyClosed = true;
frame.dispose();
closeLaunchedBrowser();
System.gc();
System.runFinalization();
private void closeLaunchedBrowser() {
final TestApplet thisObject = this;
Runnable r = new Runnable() {
public void run() {
try {
JSObject win = (JSObject)JSObject.getWindow(thisObject);
if (win != null && win.toString() != null) {
//win.eval("top.opener=self;self.close();");
//win.call("close", null);
win.eval("self.close();");
} catch (Exception e) {
Thread t = new Thread(r);
t.start();
Thanks.

I am waiting for any reply. I have tried for all these below options still I am getting Problem. I heard this is because of javascript, it wont call methods more times .Thats
why I need other than JSObject or java script solution.If some one know anything about this or any modifications I have to made for the below options to avoid that problem please let me know.
// URL durl = new URL(thisObject.getCodeBase(), "test/CloseMe.htm");
// System.out.println("URL :" + durl.toString());
// thisObject.getAppletContext().showDocument(durl);
// thisObject.getAppletContext().showDocument(new URL("javascript:window.close();"), "_self");
//win.eval("top.opener=self;top.close();");
//win.call("close", null);
//Object[] args = { "close", new Integer(50) };
// win.call("setTimeout", args);
//win.eval("setTimeout("close", new Integer(50));");
If it is the problem of JRE I just need it should work on 1.4.2_01 or higher.
thanks.

Flash quits when you close the window

Why does Flash CS5 quit when you close the window you were working in? It has to restart every time you close and open a file.

This doesn't seem to be a crashing issue. The program seems to be designed like Windows, wherein the application quits when you close the last open window. This is incredibly annoying and completely unacceptable.

Confirmation from Safari when you close a window on Mavericks

Hi all,
I was wondering if it was possible to have like a little warning from Safari when we quit a window on this application. For example: Are you sure you want to quit this window?". Firefox has this application when you close a window with several tabs.
I looked in the preferences, but i haven't found it. I know this kind of warning was present on the elder versions of Safari, so why not now?
Hope you can help,
Tim
I have a MacBook Pro, OS X Mavericks (10.9.2) and the Safari 7.0.2

Actually, you're right. After a little investigation, it was the way I was using the gui that was making this happen. During debuging (using Netbeans) I would open the dialog window then click on netbeans to check the console for a couple System.out.println()'s I put in the code. Then on closing the Dialog window Netbeans would be the next window selected by the OS and would appear over the original JFrame. D'oh! Just sillyness on my part imagining problems for myself.
I guess what I was looking for was that when I close the dialog window that the OS would focus to the parent JFrame instead of the previously viewed application.
Thanks!

Close browser window using FPM

Hi all,
My requirement is to close the browser window on click of a button in the webdynpro component.
I have triggered FPM event gc_event_close in after action of that view.
The window gets closed perfectly if I execute the application from SE80.
But the window is not getting closed when I run the application from portal, instead I get a message saying' The application is closed, you can now close the window'
Any pointers on closing the browser window when the application is run from portal would be of great help.
Thanks in advance.
Veda

I can confirm this behavior. You can change this behavior by adding code in process_event method.
1. Fire a portal event with
"urn:com.sapportals:navigation", "CloseWindow", ""
OR
1. Fire a Exit plug with close_window = abap_true

How to close browser window after flushing a file to the browser?

I have this simple JSP, which flushes a String to the browser as a file (message.txt). The JSP gets opened in a new window when the user clicks a link.
The problem is that after the JSP has run, the browser window won't close automatically. I've tried adding a small javascript to achieve this, but i doesn't seem to even get run.
How can I close the browser window after the JSP has run?
<%
     String someText = "bla bla bla";
     // Flush to browser
     response.setContentType("text/plain");
     response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment;filename=message.txt");
     try {
          ServletOutputStream os = response.getOutputStream();
          os.write(someText.getBytes());
          os.flush();
          os.close();
     } catch (IOException e) {
          return;
     } catch (Exception e) {
          return;
%>
<script type="text/javascript">
     window.close();
</script>After the JSP has run, an empty html page with the following source can be seen:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<HTML><HEAD>
<META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=windows-1252"></HEAD>
<BODY></BODY></HTML>

Try run this and you'll see that it runs fine with no exceptions:
<%
     String someText = "bla bla bla";
     response.setContentType("text/plain");
     response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment;filename=message.txt");
     try {
          ServletOutputStream os = response.getOutputStream();
          os.write(someText.getBytes());
          os.flush();
          os.close();
     } catch (Exception e) {
          out.println("ERROR: " + e);
%>It looks like that after I've closed the outputStream I can't do any more processing in the JSP. Even if I remove the setContentType and setHeader methods it still behaves this way.
I'm starting to think that there's no way around this...??

How to close browser window after user log out

How to close browser window ?

Can someone help me?
I need to close the browser window when I exit form in WEB mode
(i.e. using the toolbar exit button).
I think that, using a javascript inside the HTML cartridge, it
should be possible.
For example see the following.
<SCRIPT FOR=dev60 EVENT=????? LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
window.close;
</SCRIPT>
To make running this I must to know the event name generated by
the form applet.
Does someone know it?
Is there some documentation about this argument ?
Thanks

Never mind, found the answer here:
Re: Closing brower window

I copied this from your 5.0 download information: "All of the App Tabs you have set when you close Firefox will open as App Tabs when you start Firefox again." When I opened my computer today all my apptabs from yesterday had disappeared. Why?

Your download page for 5.0 stated: All of the App Tabs you have set when you close Firefox will open as App Tabs when you start Firefox again.
I liked the convenience of using App Tabs and was disappointed to find that the ones I had set up yesterday were gone today. Am I doing something wrong?

Works fine for me, I can simulate your problem by improperly closing Firefox.
The correct way would be to close the windows you don't want and then to exit Firefox through the File ("'''Alt+F'''") menu then use '''Exit''' or '''Qui'''t depending on your system.
But '''I can simulate your problem''' by closing the good window with "X" in the upper right-corner first (the one with the app-tabs) and then close the other window by any means.
You restart Firefox and open a window, since you closed without app-tabs there are none so you just see a window with your home page.
Firefox has some things added to Firefox 4 and therefore in Firefox 5.
# "'''Alt+S'''" (Hi'''s'''tory menu)
# "'''Restore Previous Session'''" (that's the window without the app-tabs, but you have to this first)
# "'''Restore Recently Closed Windows'''" -- can choose which window to reopen based on name and the mouse-over tells how many tabs. or you just use "'''Restore All Windows'''" without the guessing.
''I know you are on a Mac, and this affects Windows user more than anybody else, but it does affect other systems besides Windows, occasionally, perhaps more often now with the plugins container.''
The following may not completely eliminate having to terminate Firefox through the Windows Control Panel but it will come very close.
'''Plug-in and tasks started by Firefox may continue after attempting
to close Firefox''' The "X" in the upper right-hand corner closes the
Window (same as Ctrl+Shift+W) but even if it is the last Firefox window,
it does not necessarily close Firefox .
The only '''proper way to exit Firefox''' is to use '''Exit''' through the
File menu, not the "X" in the upper right corner of last Firefox window.
In the Firefox 4 and 5 that would be Alt+F then X
* '''Firefox hangs''' | Troubleshooting | Firefox Support <br>http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Firefox%20hangs#w_hang-at-exit
Use the '''Windows Task Manger''' to remove all running firefox.exe in the "'''Processes'''" tab of the Windows Task Manager, then restart Firefox.
If Firefox will still not start, remove the parent.lock file from the profile which is created each time Firefox is started to prevent other Firefox tasks from running, see<br>
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_in_use#Remove_the_profile_lock_file
'''Avoiding Problems with close/restart''' ''choose either extension''
:Use to close and restart Firefox after enabling or disabling an extension, switching to a new theme, or modifying configuration files, then you don't have to worry about delay or have to look in the Task Manager to see if Firefox is closed yet.
Both extensions use the same keyboard shortcut "'''Ctrl+Alt+R'''" or a file menu option.
*"'''Restartless Restart'''" extension for Firefox 4.0+ only (2 KB download ) <br>https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/249342/
*For older versions use "'''QuickRestart'''" extension (34 KB download) (<br>https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/3559/

App Tabs do not load on restart. "All of the App Tabs you have set when you close Firefox will open as App Tabs when you start Firefox again."

Use FF3 and taking a look at FF4. I set up some App Tabs. Close FF4. Open FF4. No App Tabs.
Any Help?

Are you clearing your recent history when you close Firefox?
Firefox stores App Tabs and tab group details in the same file that stores details of browsing sessions. Make sure that you have not set Firefox to delete browsing history. For details of the setting to check see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Clear+Recent+History
