how to open another window and close the window that calls it
- by user225269
I have this code in userpage.php:
<script langauge="JavaScript"><!--
function newWindow(fileName,windowName) { msgWindow=window.open(fileName,windowName); }
//--></script>
<a href="javascript:newWindow('1.html','window1')">Logout</a>
And this code at index.php:
<script language="JavaScript"><!--
function newWindow(fileName,windowName) { msgWindow=window.open(fileName,windowName); }
function replaceURL(fileName) { newWindow(fileName,'window2'); self.close(); }
//--></script>
What Im trying to do is to call another window that show index.php. Calling it with the userpage.php.
But the script doesn't close the window that calls it.
Its a logout link. Because when I press back button after logging out. I end up seeing the page which only the user that has logged in can access
