JavaScript to close your pop up windows
Tools & Techniques: Behaviors,
close window, JavaScript, pop up windows
Part 1: Closing a Pop Up
Window with a Text Link
Generally, the "Close Window" link is at the bottom of the
pop up page but you're welcome to put it anywhere you like.
Type out the text on your page. In this case, I'll use:
"Close Window"
Select the text and in the Property inspector, add the
following code:
javascript:self.close()
That should do it. Go ahead and save your page and give it a
try.
Part 2: Closing a Pop Up
Window with an Image
Closing a window with an image is the same as with text
links. Just add the same script to the image as you did the text
link to make it work.
Select the image you want to use to close the window and add
the following line of code to your Property inspector:
javascript:self.close() |
