windows.close() stopped working. Why?

[Darrin Smith]

I call windows.close() when the user clicks a button to close the browser. This works just great until my web page is embedded in a frame. Once that happens, the code gets called, but the browser does not close (no message is displayed warning me about the close either).

Is there a way to close the browser from within a frame?

Thanks.

Hold on...found something: http://www.codelifter.com/main/tips/tip_017.shtml

I'll give that a try.

Yup...that did it.

Instead of window.close() you need to call top.window.close().
