Closing a pop window

[anubis]

Hi
I have a pop up window with a href link which opens a page in the parent browser windows frameset. This works fine but what I want to do is when the user hes clicked on the link I want the pop window to load the page as it does now but close as well.
Below is the script as i have it now, does anyone have any ideas as to how to modify it to close the pop window as well?

<a href="#" onClick="window.opener.parent.content2.location='whats_new.html';">CLICK
HERE FOR MORE DETAILS</a>

cheers

onClick="window.opener.parent.content2.location='whats_new.html';window.self.close();">

Won't the browser show an alarm when a window tries to close itself?

Not if the window was originally opened by javascript - like the pop-up window in this case.
