You cannot find all the open browsers using javascript. You can use Navigator object for getting information about vistor's browser. Check this [http://www.w3schools.com/js/js_browser.asp]. Provide more information about your requirement.

Hi, Thanks for our reply. My requirement is to close all the open pop-up windows when user click log-out or close the application parent window. The problem is that I can not change all the pages of application 'coz if I change all the pages of my application then I have to change around 1000 pages. I am trying to findout some solution which I can apply on the logout link or onunload of main window, to close all the opened pop-ups. As we can find out the URL of browsers with "document.location.href", so I was thinking that if there is any way to find out all the open browsers and then get the URL of all the open browsers and then close all the browser whose URL starts with my domian name (let say kamboj.com). Please help me to find out solution for this. Thanks, RK..

You asked this a few days ago. http://www.codeproject.com/Messages/3556165/Re-How-to-close-all-pop-up-on-click-on-logout.aspx[^] Please do not continue to repost the same question. Especially when you have received answers to the original question.

From 14:01 4 Aug '10: "I want to close all the pop-up windows if user click on log out link..." From 50mins ago: "My requirement is to close all the open pop-up windows when user click log-out..." From 0:07 5 Aug '10 "I mean of not change existing modules means I can not change each and every program..." From 50mins ago: "The problem is that I can not change all the pages of application..." Looks like a repost to me. Just because you changed the wording a little doesn't make it new or different.

Are you using window.open in the same way every time? Are you using .js files? If you have a site with 1000 pages and didn't use something like includes, master pages or some other templating mechanism you need to go slam your hand in a door and with your broken fingers write out "I will think about maintainability" a million times.

Hi Gray, We have 1000 pages and we are using .JS files and some include files as well, So I guess I do not need to slam my hand in door and do not need to write with broken finger... :laugh: SO do you have any soluation for this now? :)

var openWindows = new Array();
window.openCustom = function(){
openWindows.push(window.open(arguments[0],arguments[1],arguments[2]));
}

Global search and replace window.open with window.openCustom. Then in your unload handler loop through openWindows. If you leave windows open and refresh the main page then you need to use an XMLHTTPRequest or some other callback mechanism to store the open windows on the server so it can be reloaded on postback.
