Close browser button

Hi there. Is it possible to add a button in adobe presenter to close the browser window. I want to launch the e-learning in full screen but once i do so i can easily close the window.
We have a bit of e-learning done by someone else which has this functionality but the scorm files consist of HTML files not SWF files so I wonder if this causes a problem.

Sam,
Create a button in a region position, name and label the button and choose
"Redirect to URL without submitting page" as the action.
When you reach the branching part of the create button wizard, choose "URL" as the target.
fill in "javascript:window.close()" as the URL target.

What can i do to regain the function of the close browser button?

after using firefox for a number of weeks without problems, today the close browser button is not functioning! (white cross on red ground) The only way to close the browser is by using the task manager end task. This is a simple problem but what can I do to fix it? I have tried updating but not reinstalling.I dont have any more details I am afraid, the button just doesnt work. I dont think it is a problem with my computer cos for example 'word' closes as expected. Likewise Internet Ezplorer. More than that I do not have any idea why this is happening.

That is Close the Window button, not close the browser, and with Firefox that makes a difference because of subtasks.
The following may not completely eliminate having to terminate Firefox through the Windows Task Manager 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 4.0 and up with the "Firefox" button that would be Alt+F then X

Use the '''Windows Task Manager''' to remove all running firefox.exe in the "'''Processes'''" tab of the Windows Task Manager, then restart Firefox.
''very infrequent --'' 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>

'''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.

Popup when closing the portal application by close browser button

We are using the portal with BSP's and in some cases we have more browser windows open. The user get confused and want to close all windows except for the main one. Put in many occasions he closes the main browser window to and then he has to logon to the postal again and go again to the page he want to be returned.
What we like is to have the functionality available that if the user closes the main-window he soul get a pop-up window if he really wants to close the application.
(you can not solve this problem by building an 'onunload' in the body-tag of the index.htm, this will lead to a pop-up any time the page changes)

Why dont you put the onUnload() function in the header of the portal?
Would that work?

"Browse" Button closes my Browser down

not sure whether it's flash related, something simply could
be corrupted on
your end. Lots of application, huge cross files mess,
possibilities for
something to go wrong - large.
I have never came across this problem and could not reproduce
it just now.
Tried IE and FireFox on Win XP SP2

Removal of the the Browse button at the lower right corner.

Just would like to send out a request for apple to update the new iTunes 8.0 by re-adding the "Browse" button at the lower right hand corner, along side of the new genius button. I found the feature in the drop down view section on the top bar, but I'm sure users will be lost and have a hard time finding it.

You can send feedback/feature requests directly to Apple at this link: Apple Product Feedback
You can also use a keyboard command to open and close the browser. Hold down the Command and B keys together.

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.

Why does the Downloads Save files to Browse button do nothing when pressed?

I'm trying to download a couple of different files from a couple of different web sites. I see the "Opening {filename}" dialog box with the "Would you like to save this file?" question and the Save File button, but nothing happens when I click on the Save File button except that the dialog box closes.
When I go into Tools/Options General tab, I select the "Save files to" button, and when I click on the Browse button to choose a directory, nothing happens.
It appears I can no longer download files.

Please disregard. My "My Documents" folder is mapped to a file server on the network, and for some reason the last time I logged in, I was denied access to that network resource. I logged out and logged back in again, and I am able to download successfully.
D'oh.

Take a look at this little example. It shows you how to use JFileChoosers, how to set the text in a JTextArea, how to add accelerators to JMenuItems and how to read a file in and display it in a JTextArea. It also shows the use of a KeyListener and a KeyAdapter. Some of the real fundamentals of what you are trying to do here.

Web Browser button

I have a HP Pavilion dv6-6c notebook, My web page keeps popping up, sporadically, it will sometimes, take me out of my website and pop up fresh. It had been suggested that my Web Browser button is stuck and suggested that I have it taken out. Any suggestions to fix this problem and not having to have this button removed.

Hi , Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have looked into your issue about your HP Pavilion dv6-6c Notebook and having issue with Internet Explorer being erratic. If you are using Internet Explorer, then go to the Tools tab Internet Options Advanced and select reset. Then close and launch Internet Explorer again. Try that out to see if it fixes it. You could try a different browser to see if it still causes the same issue. Here is a document on how to resolve and prevent virus on Windows 7. The computers with Windows 7 come with Windows Defender, I would scan the complete computer, just to make sure.
Please let me know.
Thanks.

ITunes always crash when I press the browse button...

if I have opened the browse window in iTunes main window,and then start to play musics, at this moment when I press browse button to close the browse window, iTunes always crashes.
I don't know if it is a bug. Anyone can help me?
thanks

hiya!
Indeed, when crash happend it gave me a popup window to say that it has met a problem and have to be closed.
okay, let's try enlisting some additional technical help then.
we'll get a crash log from itunes, and send it to so someone who can interpret crash logs.
Typically, you'll need to configure Dr. Watson on your PC in order to generate crash logs. Windows start menu -> Run. Type in "cmd". Hit return. At the prompt in the command line window that comes up, type in
drwtsn32 -i
And hit return.
This will create crash logs in Documents And Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Dr Watson\. There'll usually be a file in here called "drwtsn32.log"
prior to collecting the itunes crash log, delete any existing crash logs in there. (we want to make sure we send the correct crash log.)
generate the crash, collect the crash log, and send it to this email address
in the email:
(1) state the precise version number of itunes that you're using.
(2) include the URL to this thread so that the person who gets the email has some context, but also give as much information about the context of the crashing as you can.
love, b

How to close browser window after user log out

Hi,
Does anyone know how I can close browser window after user logs out. The scenario is when user clicks a log out button I will invalidate user session and close the browser right away in the backing bean.
Your help would be appreciated.

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...??

Possible solution to close browser issues.....but am not sure how to acheive it

Hi there,
In an earlier post I was and still am having issues with the close browser window, but now I have thought of a solution that will do the job if I can get CP to mimic key strokes on a button press/click or using advanced actions, but I am not sure how to achieve this....
The idea is to have the ALT-F-X keyboard combo done when a button is clicked, which will then close the browser....
Does that sound achievable??
Cheers
