Closing a dedicated login page

I want to use a popup login page and automatically close it when the user
authenticates. In my OnLoggedIn event handler in the code behind in the
popup page, I have the following:

        protected void OnLoggedIn(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            oSessionControl.showProgress("Authentic!!");
            Response.Write ("<script language =
javascript>close();</script>");
        }

However, the popup window does not close. Instead, the login document seems
to close and the calling page displays in the same window. So at that point,
I have 2 browser windows open and visible. Any clues?

Hi, Jeremy,

I'd replace the "close()" for "window.close();"

and add a Response.End() after the Response.Write
