"In a jsp"?

What do you _really_ want to do? Have you considered the fact that a browser
can be closed in different ways, which need to involve any "close button".

As usual, a URL would illustrate the real problem, but ignore this if you
don't really want to get help

So you _do_ know that capturing the close button event isn't enough. Why did
you ask about _it_, then?

> Can anybody tell how to capture the window.close() event??

You might find better help with that in comp.lang.javascript. But are you
sure _that_ is your _real_ problem?
