close a window

[izachar]

I am using
function newWindow2(images){
imagesWindow=window.open(images, 'imageWin', 'width=480,height=250')
imagesWindow.focus()
}
and i am passing variables in the URL.

what script do I need in the window that opens to close it with a button or automatically after it runs a procedure?

Try ONCLICK='window.close()'

can I have just the 'window.close()' command
I am using coldfusion to fill out a form and the next page it updates the db. after it goes through that I would like the pop up window to close.

thanks

if the call is from the popup then you can just use window.close()

If the call comes from the opener, then use imagesWindow.close()

thank you I used:
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=&quot;JavaScript&quot;>
<!--Hide script from old browsers
window.close(self);
//End hiding script from old browser-->
</SCRIPT>
at the end of my db update and it works perfect
