移动浏览器中的 window.close() 不起作用

Question

Is there an alternative way to close current tab using JS ? because window.close() is not working on Mobile browsers

Answer 1

I have the same issue, i tried a lot of ways, but none can adapt to all devices. At last, I use the follow code, I really have no better way.

window.opener=null;
window.open('','_self');
window.close();
window.history.go(-1);
$(document.body).hide()

Some browsers will not allow you to close the window using window.close() unless the script opened the window. This is a little annoying sometimes. But there is a workaround to resolve this issue.

If you observe the error message that is thrown by Mozilla Firefox, Scripts may not close windows that were not opened by the script . it clearly says that if the script didn't open the window, you can't close that. But we open a blank page in the same window using “_self” as the target window and close the same window. In that way, the script opens the window (which is a blank one) and closes the window too.

So, to put this in the code:

<script>
    function closeMe() {
        var win = window.open("","_self"); /* url = "" or "about:blank"; target="_self" */
        win.close();
    }
</script>

and

<input type="button" name="CloseMe" value="Close Me" onclick="closeMe()" />
