Tutorials - JavaScript Close Button
When you are utilizing popup windows it is often nice to include a close button for these windows. The visitor could easily click on the window's close button in the upper right-hand corner (or left-hand corner on a Macintosh). However, including this feature in your page will add a touch of personalization to your Web pages.
Step 1
Copy the following JavaScript and
paste it into the <body> section of your
document where you want the close button to appear.
<input type="button" value="Close Window" onClick="self.close()" />
Example
This sample popup window uses the JavaScript button from above.
