Problem with <body onBlur="window.close()">

P

Peter Page

Hi,
I have a window with a <body onBlur="window.close()"> tag that is closing
prematurely. The problem occurs when the user clicks on text in the window
that is within a table. Apparently IE decides that if the <table> has
focus, then the <body> doesn't, and so it should close the window. This
may be one of those new Win XP SP2 "security features" since Firefox
handles the code correctly and so does a MS IE v.5 (Mac version).

Has anyone found a workaround for this new 'feature'?

Thanks,
Peter
