RE: FLASH: Closing a new window within Flash

[Eric Dunham]

Having frames would cause that to happen...

I'm not quite sure what you're trying to do, but I'll give it a couple of

shots :)

If you're opening a popup window and trying to close that make sure that you

specify the name property of the window.

If that's what you want, then try window_name.close();

If you're trying to close the current window from a frame, then try

parent.close();

And that's assuming that your frames are only one level deep.

If you just wanted to get the stupid window closed and don't want to deal

with frames at all,

try top.close();

Heck, you might even be able to get window.close() to work, but I doubt it

;-)


HTH,

Eric Dunham

but I did do that, too, and it didn't work. Instead of closing the

window, it just brought up a blank document. One thing I did forget to

mention, though, is that I'm using frames here....that may be causing a

problem.

any other suggestions?
