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

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...??

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:

How to close browser window with AS2

How to close ie window?

hi,
i need to write a program that could open and close a particular url in ie browser for a particular number of times. i could open the browser using following code
cmd = WIN_PATH + " " + WIN_FLAG + " " + url;
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);but i could not find how to close the window - please help

p.destroy()... but how do you decide when to destroy the process -- are you using a timer or whuh?
By the way, if you just want to open a browser in a platform independent way, you could try the new Desktop [browse |http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/awt/Desktop.html#browse(java.net.URI)] method.

How to close browser?

Hi,
   I have a requirement wherein the WebDynpro application, which opens in a new browser using a link in portal, needs to be closed using a button.
   I have tried this out by two methods but both didn't work:
1: I have used exit plug and changed the logoff page. Using this I was able to close the WebDynpro application but the browser didn't close.
2: I have created one html file having javascript to close the browser which I have put in the mime repository and called this file from the exit plug of the window. Even this doesn't work.
   Can someone suggest me some way out.
   Thanks in advance. Will reward points for helpful answer.

Mukesh

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.

Express install always asks user to close browser window

Is Adobe in charge of the code that closes browser windows at
the end of express install?
I'm currently using SWFobject 1.5 to embed my flash movie
with express install active and neither IE6, IE7 or firefox will
automatically close once express install has finished. It used to
be that IE would close and reopen the window, firefox never used to
but that's a different topic I'm sure.
Perhaps Adobe changed something?

How to close child windows when parent window closed in jsp

how to close child windows when parent window closed in jsp
becoz it can't be able to recognise it's parent
with the whole application
plz send me some sample code of it

Hi, I have no idea how to do this is JSP.
However createing a modal window (with javascript) would mean that the user can not use the parent window untill he closes the child window. However not sure if this is what you are searching.
Otherwise you can detect the onClose (I think) and close the window from there.
However both the above are JavaScript and not JSP.

Close browser window from applet

I have a simple applet that is called
from another application through HTML.
When the applet is done, I'd like to have
it exit and close its browser window.
How is this done? I tried System.exit(),
and that didn't do it. Neither did
destroy().

The only thing I can think of is to have a function defined in JavaScript on your html page and have the applet call the method. For you to be able to do this you will have to have a MAYSCRIPT set in your applet tag.
IE:
<script language="JavaScript">
function closeWindow()
window.close();
</script>
<APPLET code="XYZApp.class" codebase="html/" align="baseline" width="200" height="200"
MAYSCRIPT>
</APPLET>
In your applet:
Make sure that you import the following.
import netscape.javascript.*;
JSObject win = JSObject.getWindow( this );
win.call( "closeWindow", null );// Calls the closeWindow() on the HTML page.
