Provided you name your popup window: <script>
windowname = window.open(blahblah)
</script> Then you can reference that window from any other page by it's name, say: <script>
windowname.close()
</script>

Thanks Joshie76
Thats just what I needed. What java script will say:
If the window is already open then don't open it again ? So that I can link back to the page that opens the popup without opening it again (if you see what I mean).

<script>
windowname = window.open() function test()
{
if (windowname && !windowname.closed)
{
alert('Window is still open');
}
}
</script> That should* tell you whether your window is still open or not... There's also some more useful info in this kind of thing in this forum: [webmasterworld.com...] *Handle this with a bit of care, some browsers vary in the way they handle the window objects - you'll need to do a bit of testing. Let us know if you run into any trouble. I only tested the above script in IE5.5 though you probably get the idea. Josh
