I have included popup windows in a site that I created. I need to know what code to include to automatically make the popup window close before another window can be opened.
All help greatly appreciated.

You could include this inside the popup window, causing it to close when it lost focus:

onBlur = self.close();

Adjust your popup function to reflect something similar to the following code

var my_window;
function popwin(url) {
if (!my_window.closed) my_window.close();
my_window = window.open(url,'popwin','width=400,height=275');
my_window.focus();
}

Unless you need to open the replacement window with different features, why not just re-use the same window?

Thank you for the replies.

I have a question on where to put the code. My script for the popup is on the main page calling for the popups. It looks like this:

I have a question on where to put the code. My script for the popup is on the main page calling for the popups. It looks like this:

</script>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!-- Begin
function popUp2(URL) {
day = new Date();
id = day.getTime();
eval("page" + id + " = window.open(URL, '" + id + "', 'toolbar=0,scrollbars=1,location=0,statusbar=0,men ubar=0,resizable=0,width=450,height=450,left = 640,top = 325');");
}

// End -->

I added this code for closing, based on the code you gave me:

var popUp2;
function popwin(url) {
if (!popUp2.closed) popUp2.close();
popUp2 = window.open(url,'popwin','width=400,height=275');
popUp2.focus();
}

I get a script error when I put it in. Any suggestions as to where I am going wrong?

Thanks in advance for the help.
