Closure of child window

Merajul Haque

Hi,
My issue is that i want to close the pop up window. I select a option from main window to open a file in separate new window. After opening the separate window I want to close this window but not able to do so. Pls help.

Hi Merajul Haque,

Could you please Ctrl+Hover on the new window and check if you are able to identify the elements on it. If so then try using:

_popup("Popup window name")._closeWindow();

Instead you can download the file using Sahi.

Thanks...... now its working
I have little confusion regarding browser window and popup window. Could you pls make me understand what exact difference between them so that we can easily recognize them.

Hi Merajul Haque,

A browser window is a tool used to view websites on the internet. It acts as a "window" to the world wide web. (otherwise known as the internet) .

A popup window is a window which is opened from a parent window(browser window). The popup window is nothing but the child window.

In Sahi, the elements on the popup window are been identified with _popup("popup window name") prefixed with it.
