BrowserWindow.close()

By Opera Software

From Opera 15 onward, Opera 11 & 12’s extension format is no longer supported, and instead, we’ve switched to Chromium’s extension model. Check out our new documentation for developing extensions for Opera 15 and higher and start building your own extensions.

Description:

The close() method provides a way to close a browser tab group along with all browser tab groups and browser tabs within the associated tab group collection and tab collection, respectively.

Parameters:

None

Syntax:

void close ()

Example:

The following example creates a button on the browser toolbar. When the button is clicked, the last focused window is detected and then closed.

//
// The background process (e.g. index.html)
//

// Specify the properties of the button before creating it.
var UIItemProperties = {
  disabled: false,
  title: "Example extension",
  icon: "images/icon_18.png",
  onclick: function() {
    // Get the last focused window
    var win = opera.extension.windows.getLastFocused();

    // Close the window
    win.close();
  }
};

// Create the button and add it to the toolbar.
var button = opera.contexts.toolbar.createItem( UIItemProperties );
opera.contexts.toolbar.addItem(button);
