window.close()

[Allen]

I am using the below code in the onload event to close the window after 5
seconds.
setTimeout('window.close()', 5000);
This code propmts before it closes the window. How to make sure without
prompting the window will be closed.
Thanks,
Allen

IE currently has a security hole you can use (won't work in firefox);

setTimeout('window.opener=window;window.close()', 5000);
