    How to Close an unknown BrowserWindow


    I have a great problem ...
    I want to close new opened browser window, which name is unknown.
    In JavaScript there are no possibilities to close this new window, so i have
    to try this attempt in java.

    Please, i you can answer my question, so tell me your solution.

    Thank you ... schmaddy

    If you want to write a Windows program to close another window, you have to
    know something about that other window. (I expect it's the same in Unix;
    you didn't say what OS you are using.) Even if you did, there is nothing in
    Java to do that.

    Re: How to Close an unknown BrowserWindow

    I just realized -- maybe that means, close the window the JavaScript is
    running in! If that's what you want to do then according to the JavaScript
    documentation:

    Closing a Window

    You can close a window with the close method. You cannot close a frame
    without closing the entire parent window.

    Each of the following statements closes the current window:

    window.close()
    self.close()
    close()

    (end quote)
    And if you created the window yourself in JavaScript, by newWindow =
    window.open(URL), then just do newWindow.close().
