Losing variable in Javascript

[nachtegaal9999]

Hi

I use a function : updateytplayerInfo that gives me the time to be played of a Utube film (it counts down every second)

I want to close that window when the count down has reached 0
I know that functions lose his value outside the function.
PS the function is not self made!!

function updateytplayerInfo() {

updateHTML("SBvideotime02", getDuration()-getCurrentTime());

}

Resuming Time to be played : <span id="SBvideotime02"></span>

you can only close popups, but this is how it's done:

function updateytplayerInfo() {
 if(!getDuration()-getCurrentTime()){window.close();}
updateHTML("SBvideotime02", getDuration()-getCurrentTime());

}

Hi,

Thanks for your quick reply, i.ve tested the script but it doesn't work.
I think that when youtube starts the value is 0 and closes the window
directly.
But no matter you gave me the solution to close the window
I use instead for this the next scrpt

function onytplayerStateChange(newState) {
if (newState === 0) {window.close();}
setytplayerState(newState);
}

Thanks a lot
best regards

you can only close popups

Just to extend that further, you can only close pop-ups using the document from which they are opened.
