How to close portal page by Web Dynpro App

[Former Member]

Hi There,

I would like to close a portal page by clicking a button of a Web Dynpro App which is inside an iView on that page.

Is this possible or not?

Thanks for the quick answers, but to be more specific ...

I (only) want to close the internet explorer window.

Bertil,

First, it is very bad decision to make decisions instead of user. Just redirect him to logoff page and let close window himself.

In WebDynpro you may use <b>Exit plug</b> on interface view with parameter <b>Url</b> (notice the case) of type string.

Then you may previously fire this plug with JavaScript url: javascript:void(window.top.close())

In recent versions of WD this will not work. So you have to redirect user via exit plug to some static html page, that contains in header <script>window.top.close();</script>

Hi Bertil,

U can close the appln by giving ur close action implementation inside ur OnAction() LinkToURL of the web dynpro appln.

Bertil,

Do you mean navigate complete browser window to another page? If so, then use LinkToUrl UI control and set target=_top.
