Requirement: On click of button, I want the browser window to be closed.

Solution: I am calling below java script on "onClick()" event of button.

function close_window() { window.close() }

This works in internet explorer but not in Mozilla Firefox. What is the reason behind it. Is there any way out to close the browser window in Mozilla Firefox?

You can only close windows via JavaScript that have been open via a script window.open() call.

Hey! I know that. However, it is not working on Mozilla Firefox 3.0+. Is there any other way to close the browser's window on button click?

Can you post a link to a page that opens a pop-up window where a close button doesn't work?

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

  • Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.
