How to close safari window in iPad?
I upgraded iPad2 to ios5 and Safari is configured differently. I can't see how to close an open URL. Previously, you could touch the little open book that had the number of open windows, and a screen with all the open windows opened. You could just click on the x in the corner and the URL would close. Now the open URLs are listed across the screen, and little open book shows no numbers and when you hit it you get History. So, how to close a URL?
You can't close it as such, but you should be able to get it to re-open with a blank tab by first clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cookies And Data (Clear Cache on iOS 4) and also Clear History
And then close Safari completely : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
When you re-open Safari you should, hopefully, just have a blank tab.

How to close Safari and Apps entirely?
I recently got Iphone 4 and have been reading through the manual where I noticed that Safari and other programs are still running in the background if I do not close the programs entirely. I thought all programs were closed once I clicked the 'home' button and opened another program.
I am not sure exactly how to close Safari or the App programs so I would be grateful to learn about how to do that.
Thank you.Thank you for that link. I bought two tutorial programs for Iphone 4 and that's where I saw that it was adviced to close Safari and other Apps entirely as they were running in the background and in doing so were wearing down on the battery.
As far as I understand the link you went me Safari and other Apps are kind of closed once I have clicked the Home button so that should be OK.
However, when I opened a radio program it did not seem to be possible for me to close it down even though I was using the Home button. The music kept playing which of course many times would be great however I would like to know how to close a program when I do not want to use it any more. -
How To reset Safari window size back to original factory setting?
How To reset Safari window size back to original factory setting?
I resize my pages often but I don't want to always keep them at random sizes. I want to know the proper method to reset the webpage size back to it default size. Right now it's too wide, and I click the green plus button in the upper left corner and it goes down to a very small size, I click the green plus again and it returns to the Too Wide size. I just can't seem to get it to go back to the default size.
Thanks for your help!You could try this. Set the safatri page to your convenience by dragging the bottom right hand corner of the page. Quit safari, then immediately relaunch. It should start up the same size as it was before you quit. Then ...
Go to Safari > preferences and set the page as your home page. -

Double click the Home button to show the screen with running and recently used apps. Each app icon will have a sample page above it. Flick up on the page (not the app icon) and the page will fly away and the app icon will disappear. This quits that app.

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 helpp.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 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 itHi, 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.

How do I Open Multiple Safari Windows on iPad 2?
Prior to iOS 5, I was able to open multuple Safari windows. Now it's one window with a handful of tabs.
How do I open multiple windows?Tho old view of several thumbnails has been replaced by tabs. There is no way to view the thumbnails in Safari under iOS 5. Try looking at some alternate browsers in the app store to see if any of those might suit your wants a little better.

Allow java script to close safari window
I was wondering if there is a configuration I can do to allow a Java script to close the Safari Window. Here's the script:
Display Text
Close this page
Close this window
Basically, this is part of an authentication script that we use here at our university. We have to setup our public workstations to go to this internal site so that the students can authenticate with their id. After successful authentication, the script goes to a similar code (above) and closes the browser window and the user will be able to see the desktop.
Our XP stations using IE are ok. We have IE running in kiosk mode and lockdown all other functions of the browser and OS so that the user cannot close the browser. On our Macs, we are struggling with this part. Actually a few parts but this is one of them. We can get Firefox to work but we want to be able to use safari. I have read that it's a security feature of Safari to not allow this type of script to work.
Second part in relation is we may try using a kiosk browser called "wkiosk". It is perfect and locks down everything form browser to OS. But, it is Safari based and we are faced with the same problem. It is not allowing the Java script to close the browser.
Any suggestions on how to make this work? Thanks!You can't close it as such, but you should be able to get it to re-open with a blank tab by first clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cookies And Data (Clear Cache on iOS 4) and also Clear History

Unable to close Safari windows
I am unable to close any windows in Safari.
I am able to expand and minimize them.
I had been unable to open Safari which I resolved by removing the Safari preferences file and have tried repeating this as well as resetting Safari and running general maintenance proceedures such as permissions, scripts, etc. with no success.
Is it possible to reinstall just Safari ( mine is version 2.03) or can this only be done through a system update?
Thanks for your help!
733 MHz Power PC G4 Mac OS X (10.4)After attempting various fixes and several unsuccessful attempts at using the 10.4.7 combo updater I was finally able to update to 10.4.7 from my Tech Tool eDrive.
Somewhere along this process, I think after the System update, my window problem was resolved.
Thanks.
733 MHz Power PC G4 Mac OS X (10.4) -
I can close tabs, but when I get to the final tab, I cannot close the window. Neither can I close any window with multiple tabs open, either by pressing the red close button or with CMD-W. I can minimize the window, however. I've tried resetting Safari and deleting prefs, all to no avail. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,
SaulHI Saul and welcome to Apple Discussions...
First, try restarting your Mac. If that doesn't help...
Your profile indicates you are running 10.4.11 with Safari 3.0.4
Tiger 10.4.11 minimum requirements for Safari is Safari 4 with the 2009-002 Security Update installed. Click Safari/About Safari to make sure which version of Safari you are runnig.
From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Empty Cache.
Go here for trouble shooting 3rd party plugins or input managers which might be causing the problem. Safari: Add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues
Web pages now include a small icon or 'favicon' which is visible in the address bar and next to bookmarks. These icons take up disk space and slow Safari down. It is possible to erase the icons from your computer and start fresh. *To delete Safari's icon cache using the Finder, open your user folder, navigate to ~/Library/Safari/ and move this file "webpageIcons.db to the Trash.*

How to make safari window open up to my size pref
Sorry about the long subject title. Everytime I open safari on my Apple computers the safari window will open up in a different size or place. How can I set it to open to my own default like preference so that it covers the screen when I open safari.
Does that make sense?
Thanks!Thanks alot for the quick response. However, my problem is that I do resize the window with the lower right drag every time I open safari. It doesn't seem to save the setting or something. If I stretch it out huge....next time I open, it will be tiny, (and hitting the green button doesn't fix it) or in a different possition.
Any other ideas?
Thanks!
