Closing Popups When the Parent Window is Closed
by azamsharp on 7/8/2008 6:50:22 PM
My friend recently asked me how to close the child windows when the parent is closed. Here is the code that I came up with:
// create an array of popup window object. This is a global variable
var popups = new Array();

function openPopUp(url,name)
{
var popUp = window.open(url,name,"width=100,height=100");
popups.push(popUp);
}

<body onunload="destroyPopUps()">

function destroyPopUps()
{
if(popups.length == 0) return;

for(i=0; i<popups.length; i++)
{
popups[i].close();
}
}
Refactor it!
