Hello yall,
I was just wondering if it is possible in a form, that a button not only submits the form but also can close the window? If someone can help that would be great.
Thanks yall

<input type=button onclick="this.form.submit(); self.close()" value="Submit">
Or...
<input type=submit onclick="self.close()" value="Submit">

Dear Jona~
I tired your methods, and neither one worked, the form was not sent and the window did close. Can you explain why?
Thanks

It works in IE6. Are you sure that didn't work? It works for me.

I just found out that I have IE5, is there a way it will work in the older bowsers and in netscape also? People that are viewing my website are using from 4-5 and netscape mostly
We could try something like this....
<html><head>
<script>
function exit(){var leave = setTimeout("adios()", 1000);}
function adios(){window.close();}
</script>
</head><body>
<form action="">
<!--etc. form stuff-->
<input type=submit onclick="exit()">
</body></html>
Oh, it could also be done this way (I think):
<html><head>
<script>
function exit(){var leave = setTimeout("window.close()", 1000);}
</script>
</head><body>
<form action="">
<!--etc. form stuff-->
<input type=submit onclick="exit()">
</body></html>
