Close a window after button click

[Steve]

The user clicks a buuton and the server does some
processing. If successful I want to close the window.

Any suggestions?

you could simply Response.Write the javascript to do a self.close() ala:

Response.Write ("<script language='javascript'>self.close();</script>")

A more elegant solution might be to use Page.RegisterStartupScript

Use Page.RegisterStartupScript() to add the following JavaScript to the
page:

window.opener = self;
window.close();

It will close as soon as it reloads after the PostBack.
