Popup Windows

I have a popup form that request information from another page, once the
form is updated and the submit button is pressed I would like the page to
autoclose. I was using a javascript behavior after the submit but that was
closing the form too quickly and not allowing the form to update the
database. I have tried several commands including:

<input type="submit" value="Submit" name="B1"
onclick="javascript:window.close();">
<input type="submit" value="Submit" name="B1" onclick="self.close();">

Any assitance is greatly appreciated

I would place the autoclose script on the form confirmation page or form
handler - this would update the database, thank the customer then close
the window after 5 or 10 seconds.

Remove the close from the submit button
- instead add the event to the form tag

<form action="your action" method="POST" onsubmit="self.close();>

Not a good idea. onsubmit is fired before the formdata is saved. You
risk that nothing will save but the window simply closes.
Like Ronx wrote place it on the confirmation page instead.

Ronx,

Thanks for your help...believe it or not I had just come up with that
solution about an hour before I read your post. Works pretty well so far,
and I just send all of my popup pages to that confirmation page upon submit.
