Hi Sujith

How are you opening your child window from the parent window? If you are using window.open method, You cant close the child window from the parent window.

Soln 1: Use window.showModelessDialog("URL"[,args, "list"]) or showModalDialog("URL"[, args, "list"]) method to open your child window from the parent window. While closing the parent window, the child window will also close.

Soln 2: Or else, You can close all the sessions of the application. This will close all the open windows by the application. To do this,

i) Open the system application 'SYSTEM' and copy 'session_single_frame.htm' to your application.

ii) Change the target_page attribute's value to your application starting html page name in 'session_single_frame.htm'.

iii) Activate and run session_single_frame.htm. The page will open your application and will handle all the session log offs and window closing.

Get back if you have any doubt.

Hope it helps ;>)

Rakesh.

Hi Sujith

The second method will not close the child window. It will close all the sessions of the application. Sorry for the inconvinience.

Hi Sujith

I tested what you said. It triggers a new window for any htmlb event in bsp elements. It works fine only for html tags. I ll get back to you when i find a solution. The solution what Athavan Raja suggested works fine with window.open().
