Close Button for Web Dynpro in an iView launched from UWL

Question

Hi All, this sounds like such a simple thing but its really got me thinking.
Have a web dynpro application launching form the UWL into an iView (using the IViewLauncher, I'm using this so I can change some visual effects of the application with the iView).  The application is the LeaveApprover application.
Need a close button on the confirmation screen.  Have tried the following code called from a Close button:
     try {
          String url  = WDURLGenerator.getWebResourceURL(wdComponentAPI.getDeployableObjectPart(),"closepage.html");
          TaskBinder.getCurrentTask().getClient().sendRedirect(url, 0);
     } catch (Exception e) {
          e.printStackTrace();
The closepage >>
function closeWindow()
{var currWindow = window.top;
currWindow.opener = window.top;
currWindow.close();
onload run the closeWindow function
This is a test file to close the window....
This works if I use the standard UWL launch but DOES NOT WORK with the iViewLauncher.
Also tried creating an exit plug in the interface view and calling it from my close button, but no luck with either.
Please help.  Thanks Brian

Answer 1

Hi Brian,
we had a similar problem in the past. We wanted to call a normal Button placed on the WebDynpro View and the close script was saved in the km content in portal.
We solved it with an own project in NWDS including the html Files.
