Why doesn’t this work in IE

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:

Hi, the following code is a close button that i have placed on my php page:

echo “<center><input type=’button’ value=’Close’ onClick=’javascript:window.close();’ /></center>”;

The button works fine in FF but when i click on it in IE it does not do anything

Does anyone know why? Thanks in advance

@MrNobodyFeb 19.2008 — Try this complete replacement for your line:

echo '<center><input type="button" value="Close" onclick="top.close();return true;" /></center>';

@oo7mlauthorFeb 19.2008 — I thought it had to be in single quotes. I will try your code later, thanks

@MrNobodyFeb 19.2008 — The quotes probably don't matter -- that's just the way I like to do things. The real change was in the [B]onclick[/B] anonymous event handler content. If that doesn't work, then your IE is blocking it.

Success!
