closing a window
Is there a script that can be used to close the browser. I want a button on my site that will completely close the browser and any other windows open. Any ideas?

No,
you may only close windows automatically without the user's permission if you openened them yourself (through a JavaScript)

For those wondering why, this is a security feature (not a bug) built in to javascript to avoid people really messing up your browsing experience...
