if you want to close a window using this method , you have to open it before
using window.open
otherwise you will get this message.In other words , you can only close
child windows that you have opened.

for example try this :

window.open("1.htm");


in 1.htm write this :

window.close();

Try this:

Hi,

Any user-opened window will show that prompt (and cannot suppress it). Only
script-opened (window.open) windows will close silently.

It's a security feature that unables script to close a window he did not
open.

There are some walkarounds but you will have to give me first some more
details on the application:
When you close this window are there any other windows opened?

no, here are the only ways I know of

use javascript to automate it..or
user clicks "close" in browser window.
user unplugs computer
