Dhtml closeit() function

[kmclaurin]

Hello, I am looking for help with :
DHTML Window
http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...htmlwindow.htm

I am trying to call the closeit() function with a link :
<a href = "javascript:closeit()">Return to list </a> and
get an error on first line in the function :
document.getElementById("dwindow").style.display="none"

Is there a syntax I can use from a link to do this?
Many thanks!

If you're calling closeit() from within the DHTML window (ie: the link is inside the DHTML window), you'll need to use something like:

<a href="javascript:parent.closeit()">Close</a>

Important: The above code will only work inside the DHTML window if that page is from the same domain as the main page calling the window. If not, a security error will occur, as JavaScript cannot cross over to a different domain than the one it's on.
