window.close() not working in workflow

Akash001

Hi,
We have a Workflow named Component Job workflow, where in we are not allowing user to select dcr which is already associated to this workflow. If so then we are alerting user saying "This component is already part of this", and then closing the instantiator window with window.close() . Everything is working fine. But when user edits existing dcr which is already part of this workflow and clicks on finish at that time we are providing user to select the the new job. When user selects Component Job workflow, user gets the alter message but when he/she clicks on OK then the job window is not closing up.

When I tried viewing the source code of instatiator window of both, that is, when user clicks new job and when user clicks on Finish of the template they both are different. Former contains the window.close() script where as later one does not have that.

Please help me with this.

OnClick of Ok button try this code
window.opener.close();
top.close();
First stament used for parent job window close.
Second for self close.
