close method (document object)
Closes an output stream and forces data sent to layout to display.
语法document.close()
用法
描述
The close method closes a stream opened with the document.open() method. If the stream was opened to layout, the close method forces the content of the stream to display. Font style tags, such as <BIG> and <CENTER>, automatically flush a layout stream.
The close method also stops the "meteor shower" in the Netscape icon and displays "Document: Done" in the status bar.
例子The following function calls document.close() to close a stream that was opened with document.open(). The document.close() method forces the content of the stream to display in the window. function windowWriter1() {
var myString = "Hello, world!"
msgWindow.document.open()
msgWindow.document.write(myString + "<P>")
msgWindow.document.close()
}

close method (window object)
Closes the specified window.
语法windowReference.close()
windowReference is a valid way of referring to a window, as described in the window object.
用法
描述
The close method closes the specified window. If you call close without specifying a windowReference, JavaScript closes the current window.
In event handlers, you must specify window.close() instead of simply using close(). Due to the scoping of static objects in JavaScript, a call to close() without specifying an object name is equivalent to document.close().
例子
Any of the following 例子 close the current window: window.close()
self.close()
close()
The following example closes the messageWin window: messageWin.close()
This example assumes that the window was opened in a manner similar to the following: messageWin=window.open("")

open method
confirm method
Displays a Confirm dialog box with the specified message and OK and Cancel buttons.
语法
confirm("message")
message is any string or a property of an existing object.
用法
描述
Use the confirm method to ask the user to make a decision that requires either an OK or a Cancel. The message argument specifies a message that prompts the user for the decision. The confirm method returns true if the user chooses OK and false if the user chooses Cancel.
Although confirm is a 用法 the window object, you do not need to specify a windowReference when you call it. For example, windowReference.confirm() is unnecessary.
例子
This example uses the confirm method in the confirmCleanUp() function to confirm that the user of an application really wants to quit. If the user chooses OK, the custom cleanUp() function closes the application. function confirmCleanUp() {
if (confirm("Are you sure you want to quit this application?")) {
cleanUp()
}
}
You can call the confirmCleanUp() function in the onClick event handler of a form's pushbutton, as shown in the following example: <INPUT TYPE="button" VALUE="Quit" onClick="confirmCleanUp()">

cookie property
String value of a cookie, which is a small piece of information stored by the Navigator in the cookies.txt file.
语法document.cookie
Property of
描述
Use string methods such as substring, charAt, indexOf, and lastIndexOf to determine the value stored in the cookie. See the Netscape cookie specification for a complete specification of the cookie 语法.
You can set the cookie property at any time.
例子
The following function uses the cookie property to record a reminder for users of an application. The "expires=" component sets an expiration date for the cookie, so it persists beyond the current browser session. The format of the date must be Wdy, DD-Mon-YY HH:MM:SS GMT
where Wdy is the full name of the day of the week, DD is an integer representation of the day of the month, Mon is the month, YY is the last two digits of the year, and HH, MM, and SS are two-digit representations of hours, minutes, and seconds, respectively.
This is the same date format as returned by Date.toGMTString, except:
Dashes are added between the day, month, and year
Year is two-digit for cookies.
For example, a valid cookie expiration date is:
expires=Wednesday, 09-Nov-99 23:12:40 GMT function RecordReminder(time, expression) {
// Record a cookie of the form "@=" to map
// from in milliseconds since the epoch,
// returned by Date.getTime(), onto an encoded expression,
// (encoded to contain no white space, semicolon,
// or comma characters)
document.cookie = "@" + time + "=" + expression + ";"
// set the cookie expiration time to one day
// beyond the reminder time
document.cookie += "expires=" + cookieDate(time + 24*60*60*1000)
// cookieDate is a function that formats the date according to the cookie spec
}
When the user loads the page that contains this function, another function uses indexOf("@") and indexOf("=") to determine the date and time stored in the cookie.
