Window self.close problem 1

[IBZ]

I am new to javascript, I have a problem with a window...

I am using this code to open a new window when someone clicks on the link, but I would like to close the parent window when they have clicked...

<a href="javascript:void(null)" onClick="makeNewWindow0091();javascript:self.close()">Link</a>

The new window is opened when the user has clicked on the link but a popup box appears and asks the user if they really want to close the window.
How can I stop the popup box and close the window automatically?

Am I doing this wrong?

Hi,
In your makeNewWindow0091 function ( not where you have it now) use something like this:

 windowprops = "fullscreen=no,location=no,scrollbars=no,menubars=no,toolbars=no,resizable=yes"; //modify to fit your needs
NewWindow=window.open(<yourdesiredwindowurl>,"rptWindow",windowprops);
self.close()

To Paraphrase:"The Help you get is proportional to the Help you give.."

Try this:

<a href="javascript:void(null);" onclick="makeNewWindow0091(); this.opener=self; self.close();">Link</a>

Hope this helps,
Dan
