Maybe the Applet forum would be a better place to get an answer to this question. I'll transfer this thread there.

I don't think you can do this from an applet. I know you can close browser windows from JavaScript, but if you try to use a window.close() on a window that you didn't open with window.open() you will get a dialog telling you that the application is trying to close the window, and is that OK? You could write a JavaScript that handles the closing of the window and call it from your applet. Would that help you?

Hi i'm also interested in this answer. Heres my scenario. A user clicks on a link to my applet and it opens another window which holds my applet. My applet is also in a frame. I currently call window.close() from my applet. However whenever the user goes back to click on the applet link (the previous window) the applet never reloads.. I partially solved this by calling System.exit(0/1) before i called the window.close().. my applet exited AND i had no problem clicking on the applet link to reload it.. HOWEVER the applet browser will still be open.. (my applet is in its own frame).. when call System.exit(0/1) after i call the window.close() then both windows close.. the browser window holding my applet AND the browser window containing my applet link. i want to be able to call window.close() so it closes my applet browser window and also call system.exit() so i can reload my applet.

Well Guys You are mistaken, What i Meant is that I created a Application in java. which has frame and the button exists on frame. its not a applet
