How do I use a <asp:button> to close a window

[Guest]

Hi,

I would like to add a <asp:button> to a webform. When user click on this
button, the page will connect to SQL server and update tables, then the
browser window will be closed.

I know how to connect to SQL server and update tables but I don't know how
to close browser window after that. The SQL server part is on the server
side, closing window is on client side.

TIA

Ed, in your Button's Click event handler, you'll have to inject some
client-side JavaScript (namely, self.close(). You can accomplish this
using the Page.RegisterClientScriptBlock() method. I discuss this
method, closing windows, and how to achieve other common client-side
techniques in ASP.NET, in this article of mine:

after you fetch the details from sql server. Write the following line

Page.RegisterStartupscript("name","<script language="javascript">
window.close() </script>")
