How to close all opened popups at a time with out their names in javascript

Question

In my application I am redirecting the application to some session_expiry.jsp when session has expired, so in that moment before redirecting to session_expiry.jsp if any popups were opened then I need to close using javascript. I can't use the popup names because I can't hard code the names for whole application.

please help me if you have any idea.

Thanks, Jampanna

var WindowDialog = new function() {
this.openedWindows = {};

this.open = function(instanceName) {
    var handle = window.open(Array.prototype.splice.call(arguments, 1));

    this.openedWindows[instanceName] = handle;

    return handle;
};

this.close = function(instanceName) {
    if(this.openedWindows[instanceName])
        this.openedWindows[instanceName].close();
};

this.closeAll = function() {
    for(var dialog in this.openedWindows)
        this.openedWindows[dialog].close();
};
};


// close all dialogs

WindowDialog.closeAll();

Thanks for your response, actually I don't want to hard code any name , here what I have to mention in 'instanceName' is it a popup name or other, please clarify my doubt – Jampanna Feb 19 '14 at 06:40
you dont have to pass popup name.. its for to open and close.. but you need only closeall function thats it. And closeall function not required popup name. – Mehul Rajput Feb 19 '14 at 07:07
It's not working!! I am getting null or not an object for WindowDialog variable. – Jampanna Feb 19 '14 at 07:30
I used this code like...var WindowDialog = new function() { this.openedWindows = {}; this.closeAll = function() { for(var dialog in this.openedWindows) this.openedWindows[dialog].close(); }; }; WindowDialog.closeAll(); is it correct? by this code am getting null or not an object script error at WindowDialog, can you please send correct way of using this code to close all the popups – Jampanna Feb 19 '14 at 08:27
tell me how you open pop ? – Mehul Rajput Feb 19 '14 at 08:38
popWin = window.open("something.do? "AdmissionDisplayPS", "width=350,height=440,scrollbars=1,resizable=1,status=1,top=80,left=100"); – Jampanna Feb 19 '14 at 08:56
please take an array and store all popups when you open it. like document.MyActiveWindows= new Array; function openWindow(sUrl,sName,sProps){ document.MyActiveWindows.push(window.open(sUrl,sName,sProps)) } function closeAllWindows(){ for(var i = 0;i < document.MyActiveWindows.length; i++) document.MyActiveWindows[i].close() } – Mehul Rajput Feb 19 '14 at 09:39
