  • 0

i have an browser with pdf which is opened on clicking “viewPDF” button in the main page of an asp.net and c#.net application.

On clicking the “viewPdf” button i am opening the pdf in the browser using the javascript as below:

<script language="javascript">
    function openpdf()
    {
        var  pdfobj= window.open('epcrpdf.aspx');
    }
</script>

in the design page.

<input id="btnTakeAction"
       class="Button" 
       type="button" value="View Pdf" 
       onclick="javscript:openpdf();">

The problem is i also have a log out button in the mainpage, on cliking the log out button i have to close the childwindows like the browser containing pdf.

when i try to close the browser containing using javscript as below i face a problem of “Access is denied”.

pdfobj.close();

but other browsers which does not contain pdf gets closed with out any error message.
