what do you mean by current window.
if you want to close window use:
window.close();
if you want to capture space bar event use:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>Untitled</title>
</head>
<body>
<script>
function catchSpaceBar(event){
if(navigator.appName.index
if (event.keyCode == 32){
alert('Space was captured');
window.close();
}
}
else{
if (window.event.keyCode == 32) {
alert('Space was captured');
window.close();
}
}
}
document.onkeyup = catchSpaceBar;
</script>
!!! important:
For newer Netscape browsers,
their on-line manual says:
"To unconditionally close a window,
you need the UniversalBrowserWrite privilege."
(which really means a signed script).
