Re: FLASH: Closing a new window within Flash

[2Nerotik]

First this is what I've found:

javascript:window.self.close ();

AND

javascript:window.parent.self.close ();

both work in IE 5.5 (beta) on a PC


However

javascript:window.self.close ();

does not work in NN on a PC

BUT

javascript:window.parent.self.close ();

does work.


I'm guessing it's not having the window.parent in the code

that is giving NN trouble and that NN needs that to know that

the code is in frames.


Try it on the MAC it might work.


In case anyone was wondering those were all tested using the Get URL

in the buttons properties.
