Add close window button

  1. I'm working on a new form using the latest RC of gravity forms, and what I was trying to do is add a close window button after the thank you message confirmation. By adding "a href="window.close()" rel="nofollow">Close Window" the close window appears, however, it doesn't actually close the fancybox modal that the form appears in. I want to add this to simplify navigating throughout the site, so any help would be greatly appreciated.

  3. Yeah, that's not really a Gravity Forms question, it's a Fancybox support question. I'm pretty sure that method won't work because the Fancybox modal isn't really a window.

    A quick search turned up some good information..

    It looks like you use a special function to close the modal.

    onclick="$.fancybox.close();"

    If that doesn't work, you'll need to research that more on their support site.

  5. it Looks like you just put that as a link in your modal window confirmation content somewhere..

    <a href="javascript:;" onclick="$.fancybox.close();">close window</a>
