Question

Closing a parent window when the modal child is closed

I have a mashup with a button that uses a hidden navigation widget to open a modal child window that is just a confirmation message.  When the child window is closed I would like for the parent to also close so the user does not click the button again.  Looking for the cleanest way to handle this.  Any help would be appreciated

Expression widget that is triggered upon popup closed event

I think you can use window.close()

Thanks for the response!  I bound the Expression 'Evaluate' event service to the Navigation widget's PopupClosed event with an Expression of "close()" however that did not close the parent.  "window" appears to be a reserved word that gives an error so window.close() doesn't seem to be usable.  Any thoughts?

You could try just close()

else you may have to create a custom extension to bring in that script.
