I am using this link http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex8/popwin.htm for the pop up window, i wanted to get it to work by clicking on an image... any ideas?

I want the reader to have the ability to close the pop-up window once they finished reading it by click on a the words "Close Window" at the bottom section of the page. How do i do that?

Well, if it is your own page, put this at the bottom:


<a href="#" onclick="self.close();return false;">Close Window</a>

If it is someone else's page, you are out of luck unless you can get them to put that code on their page.

Better yet, put this script at the bottom of the page:


<script type="text/javascript">
if(this.opener)
document.write('<a href="#" onclick="self.close();return false;">Close Window</a>')
</script>

That way, if the page is reached via another method other than javascript, the link to close it won't be displayed as, it wouldn't work anyway.
