Matt Anderso #1 / 2	Open IE, navigate to a page then exit IE. I was wondering if there was a way to open an Internet Explorer window (IE3.02, unfortunately), navigate to a page and then exit the app as soon as the page is finished loading? The page that loads is an ASP page that gets data from a SQL database and then creates a bunch of HTML files from that data, so I have to wait for it to finish loading before quitting IE. I had it working with IE4, but I just created a for loop that would run a million times just to give the page time to load, but I still can not get the window to open with IE3. Thanks for any help!

Neil Henderso #2 / 2	Open IE, navigate to a page then exit IE. Here is the VBScript code to open a new window: Dim MyWin MyWin = window.open("mypage.asp", "WindowName") [ There are other options to specify window size, etc ] Then, in your mypage.asp you can use some client-side code to close the window once the page has loaded: Sub Window_OnLoad() window.close() End Sub Neil Henderson -- Quote: >I was wondering if there was a way to open an Internet Explorer window >(IE3.02, unfortunately), navigate to a page and then exit the app as soon as >the page is finished loading?
