Hi Colin,

just for my curiosity - does the window closing method from your link work or not? Also which FF version do you run on IGEL?

Thanks!
Franta.

Hi all

Many thanks for the pointers.  It seems FireFox on the IGEL is a bit
tricky to programatically close browser windows.  I tried a couple of
approaches including what was suggested above and also at
http://www.yournewdesigner.com/css-experiments/javascript-window-close-firefox.html

I'll update the support ticket I have with GSS on this as some
collaboration with the folks at IGEL may be required.

Thanks again

CC
