Problem with close window in PHP

**Duck** · 08-04-2009

I have a little trouble here...

In fact in my program there is a log using an ID, if the identifier is an administrator identifier then I open another window with the main page with one frame left menu and the right page. So far so good, but I put a button "Logout" to leave the admin mode and return to the login page, but I was not able to close this window ...

Here is the code that opens the new window:

PHP Code:


<script language"=JavaScript"> 

function OpenWindow()

{

var V; 

V=window.open("Frame.html","fullscreen","fullscreen" );

}

</script>

and in the body called this function

PHP Code:


if ($_POST ['identify']=="admin ") /* testing if the user is an admin 

{

echo 'Your identification as that \admin\well'; 

echo '<input type="button" value="Continue" onclick="OpenWindow();">'; 

}

in the next page (ie frame) at the bottom of the menu I have this button

PHP Code:


<form name= form action = "Deconnection.php" target="zoneview"> 

<input type = "submit" value = "Logout" 

</form>

and here is the page code Deconnection.php

PHP Code:


<script language="JavaScript"> 

function CloseWindow() 

{

this.close(); 

}

</script> 

</head> 

<body> 



<H2> <b> Have been disconnected you will be redirected to the login page </b> </H2> 



<input type="button" value="Return to login" onclick= CloseWindow()>

the concern is that the this.close () does not work. I have to try to this.close () directly into the onclick or self.close () but its not working ..

so if you have an idea to close this window.

Why don't you use something like:

Code:

window. close ();

The ideal would be

PHP Code:


var V; 

V=window.open("Frame.html","fullscreen","fullscreen" ); 

... 

V.close

Or, theoretically, the following code should work:

PHP Code:


<form method="post"> 

<input type="button" value="Return to login" onclick="window.close()"> 

</form>

I have tried window.close in the onclick, but also in the CloseWindow () it does not work; nothing happens when I clicked

there is no error ...

I thought this may be just the fullscreen but it does not work with a "normal" window
