Hey you still get the star . . .hey can you show me how to structure this code? I know it sounds stupid of me asking but Im kind of a newbie to JS . . . heres what I got.
<head>
<title></title>
<script>
function killparent() {
parent.document
window.close()
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<input type="button" onclick="killparent()" value="kill">
That does not work, it turns off the child and I want it to turn off the parent, how do I do this? Thanks in advance

function killparent() {
parent.window.close();
}
though the user will be asked whether they want to close the window or not. this should solve that:
function killparent() {
parent.window.opener = self;
parent.window.close();
}
=========================================================
while (!succeed) try();

parent.window.close();
