Problem closing Browser with Window.Close

Dec 21st, 2006

Hi,
I have an ASP.NET application that will not close a Browser using the Javascript Window.Close() command.

I am opening a Browser on top of the current Browser to display and collect additional information. In the Click event of the command button on the pop-up Browser, I execute some VB.NET code prior to calling the javascript Window.Close() command. This works fine for three workstations in the office, but two workstations will execute the VB.NET code, but will not close the Browser, even clicking the X in the browser window will not close the pop-up Browser on these two workstations. They just hang. The Internet Options appear to be identical on all the workstations in the office. All the workstations are using Internet Explorer 6.0. Does anyone have any ideas as to why the pop-up Browser will not close on these two workstations?

Thanks,
Mike
