Scenario:

Link on PAGE "A" opens page "B" in new WINDOW
Link on page "B" returns to page "A" and closes page "B"

How can I return to the original (and already open) page "A" without opening a duplicate page "A"?

I found the snip below on this site. Are there any other WAYS to do it?

Thanks in advance for any advice.


You do get Javascripts which can be used to close open browser windows. That's basically what you need.Hi Corrosive,

Thanks for the reply.

I've been looking around for different scripts. It seems that I probably can't do what I want without getting too complicated.

The site will be for youth sports with a very small audience. Maintenance will be handed down frequently to parent volunteers. We are using a package that does not require any PROGRAMMING ability.

I would like to open a home page and keep it open while other pages are explored. The kids tend to close the window instead of using a "Return" button. If only one window is used they will exit the site.

GaryI really don't see what the problem is here. On your homepage you use a little Javascript to create a pop-up (or add 'target="_blank"' to your link code), it stays open, you browse that site, and then you close that window and you get back to the homepage...
