[COLOR=royalblue]Hello yall,
I was just wondering if it is possible in a form, that a button not only submits the form but also can close the window? If someone can help that would be great.

Thanks yall

@JonaMar 29.2003 — <input type=button onclick="this.form.submit(); self.close()" value="Submit">

Or...

<input type=submit onclick="self.close()" value="Submit">

I tired your methods, and neither one worked, the form was not sent and the window did close. Can you explain why?

Thanks

@JonaApr 22.2003 — It works in IE6. Are you sure that didn't work? It works for me.

@Tasmanian_DevilauthorApr 22.2003 — I just found out that I have IE5, is there a way it will work in the older bowsers and in netscape also? People that are viewing my website are using from 4-5 and netscape mostly

@JonaApr 22.2003 — We could try something like this....

<html><head>

<script>

function exit(){var leave = setTimeout("adios()", 1000);}

function adios(){window.close();}

</script>

</head><body>

<form action="">

<!--etc. form stuff-->

<input type=submit onclick="exit()">

</body></html>

@JonaApr 22.2003 — Oh, it could also be done this way (I think):

<html><head>

<script>

function exit(){var leave = setTimeout("window.close()", 1000);}

</script>

</head><body>

<form action="">

<!--etc. form stuff-->

<input type=submit onclick="exit()">

</body></html>

Success!
