Why doesn't this work?
<Body ONLOAD="window.close()">

No window close will work from the body...

So, how do you close a window as soon as it opens?

That works fine for me in IE.
Possibly the page you are seeing is a cached version, try refreshing or clearing out your cache.

And if the window isn't opened by Javascript and you want to get rid of the dialogue, try the following.
<Body ONLOAD="window.opener='';window.close();">

Or is your browser FireFox? I think that doesn't let you close it like that.

I'm using Safari and I can't get it to close any window without clicking on the red "Close" button.

Thanks
