Ok then. Is there another way I can close this window without using the
window.close() method?

Thanks
Terrence

check the archives, this topic has been discussed to death!

You will always get this message if you try to close the top-most window in
the hierarchy, there is no way to disable it.

Hi,

Whenever I call the method window.close(), Internet Explorer prompts the
user with the following message:
"The Webpage you are viewing is trying to close the window. Do you want to
close this window?"  

Does anyone have an idea of how I can disable this message or close the
window another way?

Many Thanks
Terrence
