No - the web is not a friendly enough place for browsers to allow that sort of thing.

If the window is opened by a JS, it is possible.

[N a v a n e e t h]

It has nothing to do with ASP.NET. It's just javascript.

JS is Java Script

Looks like you are not aware of how an ASP.NET page works. Response.Close() closes the connection to the client, not browser window. This executes on the sever. Java scipt executes on the client machine. To close a window from ASP.NET, you need to emit JS to the response.

<script language="javascript">
function closeWindow(){
window.close();
}
</script>

I guess you wrote it on the code behind. Write it in the ASPX page inside head section. Call this from the control to close window.

use this line on your exit button click event. Response.Write("<script language='javascript'> { self.close() }</script>");

that would be good. but how did they do it?

[Vasudevan Deepak Kumar]

If your script had opened a window, you have the rights to close it through window.close() without requesting permissions from the user. Otherwise, the web browser is obliged to get a nod from the user whether to accede to your request.

What he is trying to tell is if the window has been opened through Javascript then you will not be asked for the permission otherwise confirmation box will appear.

:doh: As I said, if the window is opened by a JS, then you can close it without any confirmation message. When JS is not the owner of the window, usually browsers will show a message to prevent unwanted scripts closing the window.
