    How do I get a close window button in a jsp to actually close the window.
    It doesn't do anything when I press it.

    This is the code Im using for it.
    <form>
		<input type="button" value="Close Window" onclick="javascript:window.close();">
</form>

    Its JavaScript not JSP (Java Server Pages). JSP is server side based.
    Anyhow, there are certain security restrictions for using the close () method.

    The close method closes only windows opened by JavaScript using the open method. If you attempt to close any other window, a confirm message is displayed, asking the user to choose whether the window is to be closed or not.

    Maybe this will help: http://blogs.x2line.com/al/articles/350.aspx
