Hi all...I have a page, which i open using window.open  (Let's call it first
child).
From this page i have a button, which opens another popup..(Let's call it
second child)

on closing of the second child i set a few hidden variables in the first
child
My problem is that when i close the firstchild(using the default cross no
the top), when the second is still open and then try and xlose the second,
it gives me a runtime error saying that the callee is unavailable and all
connections are closed..

Is there any way, by which if the parent is closed,( when the child is still
open), i stop the user from closing it or close the child also
automatically????

var childWindow = window.open();
window.onunload = function()
{
    if(self.childWindow) childWindow.close();

You cannot stop window from closing, but it's easy to remove child window
when parent is closed:

onunload=function(){child.close()}

where child is the pointer obtained from window.open() call.
