Is there any way to disable the upright ->[X] on a popup window so the user has to click a button on the page to close the popup window?

Thanks

Sorry, but no. Why would you want to anyway? The browser chrome is property of the user, not you. You really shouldn't take away basic functionality of the browser window from the user.

Because if they doen't click the button to close the window the parent page will not change, if they only X out of the page with page will not change.

Why is this true? Can't you use an onunload event handler that will be triggered by either button?
