What you have posted won't work because you have commented it out. The following will work to close a window. If the window is the parent window (the only window open) you get a message box asking "Do you want to close this window?". <a href="javascript:window.close();">Close Me</a> This works with Internet Explorer but probably won't work with other browsers. You can also use a button or image. Using the elements 'OnClick' event handler you can call a script function to close the window also. This is usually done for popup windows. Mark

If you didn't think that you would get a reply, why did you post at all? ;) --- b { font-weight: normal; }

1. You can show some code. 2.1. Do you mean in the url? <a href="page.jsp?key=value&amp;anotherkey=anothervalue"> 2.2. Yes. I don't know what technology you are using, but from the file type in the href property of the link, I assume that you are using JSP. I don't know how you write out values to the page in JSP, but I assume that it's similar to ASP: <a href="threads.jsp" onwhatever="functionName(<%=myvar%>);"> function functionName(var) { session.setAttribute("Myvar", var); } Substitute "onwhatever" with the event you are using. If the value is a string, however, you would surround it with apostrophes, the value should be html encoded, "\" should be replaced by "\\" and "'" should be replaced by "\'". --- b { font-weight: normal; }

Which attributes do you mean? Where do you want to pass them to? Could you be more specific about your context?

You have still not supplied the crucial piece of information, what is the exact assertion? Just saying "an assertion happened" means nothing, it could be anything. Learn to use the tools you have in front of you. Start the debugger, step through and into your code. Watch the values of all your variables, and when you hit an assertion look at the code and all the variables referenced in that code. At least one of the variables will have an invalid value. Figure out which one it is, and then use the call stack to backtrace to where that invalid value was set. It can take a little bit of detective work, but you can do it. I can't do it with the information you have supplied so far. Good Luck!:) You may be right I may be crazy -- Billy Joel -- Within you lies the power for good - Use it!

For most applications, there is no need to interface with the message pump, or even the message queue. It's all handled nicely for you. See that worker-thread link I referenced earlier.
