I have a link from my home page to a popup window in asp that has a log in form. After clicking submit it opens a mailing list application in a new window. I would like the popup window to close after clicking submit. The asp login.asp page does not have a body tag.

The JavaScript code for closing a pop-up window is:

<pre id=code><font face=courier size=2 id=code>
javascript:window.close()
</font id=code></pre id=code>

Maybe you can use a follow-up page that is using the JavaScript code in the Body Onload tag. Maybe you will get a warning "Internet Explorer is trying to close this window, are you sure". But I think that reflects only on normal browser windows and not on pop ups

Better yet, all you have to do rather than redirecting, you can just put it right on that page like this:
&lt;script language="javascript"&gt;
window.close()
&lt;/script&gt;

Does that make sense? I can send it to you in context if that would help at all.
