Web viewer close FM Window

Featured Replies

Hi Guys,

I've built an application and one of my 'dialog' windows has a web viewer in it which contains a html text editor. I use api for php to add content back into a FileMaker database when someone submits the html form. This all works well, however I would also like to shut down my FileMaker dialog window, upon submit. Is this possible using the API for PHP somehow calling a client-side script to close window for the particular user? 

Thanks in advance

call a script to close the window (by name) in your php?

Hi Beverly,

Tried that, unfortunately the  Close Window command does not work, errors on execute. I can execute a normal set field script. I guess its because I'm trying to close the window down client side?

Thanks

Jalz
