Close a popup Query (or any other window with focus)

BLOMASKY

I have a requirement, where I have a query that opens as a popup. There are operations with records, and after the process is run, I need this query popup to close.

I was not smart enough to figure this out, but John T, who is much smarter than me, better looking and has a cool tie! helped me, so let me share this incase others need this functionality.

At the end of my process I added an EXEC_SCRIPT with:

'let win = AwareApp.m_curPopupWindow; win.window.close ();'

Thanks John!

Is there an equivalent script for a form that is displayed in Default rather than a PopupWindow?

This seems like a tips and tricks post

Anyone know the code to close a regular form window.
(I'm NOT able to use the checkbox "Close form after save")

Using this, I get a runtime error:
"Exception running script TypeError: Cannot read property 'window' of undefined"

I would assume thats cause I don't have a popup, so it didn't find that object.

for popup: 'let win = AwareApp.m_curPopupWindow; win.window.close ();'
tried:
'let win = AwareApp; win.window.close ();' and
'let win = AwareApp.aware_app; win.window.close ();'
Error was: Cannot read property 'close' of undefined

Is it a modeless form? Screenshot?

hi john,
just a regular form from a Create or Edit Object

Basically, I ended up doing this:
EXEC_SCRIPT 'window.close ();'

That closed my newly opened browser tab the Landing Page appeared in after the user clicks on a link from the company's main website.
(Customer wants to request data, click on a link on Company Website, Aware page opens in new Tab via URL login to a VP, Form collects data, Save button saves form and runs Process to display Thank You, then closes the new Tab.)

Looked great, until I tried it on my iPad and the tab didn't close.
Decided to DISPLAY LAYOUT xxx from VP_xxx using static HTML, that says thanks, with a button that DISPLAY URL to Company Homepage.
User can then close the tab or continue if they wish.
