How to auto close a Tab?

Question

I am doing a qcm, so when a user comes i need to check that all his tab are closed to let him begin the quiz. Else if he open another tab to cheat I need to auto close the quiz tab.
Can you help me to fix it?

Answer 1

you can only close tabs/windows from wich you could get reference... meaning you cannot close tabs/windows opened by user or other tabs/windows (and that's good news: imagine malicious script who else could close your opened tabs without your agreement :P)

Answer 2

Generating new window wouldn't help you, as user would be able to open tabs/windows before, during and/or after your quizz (anyway, user could also open another browser, on same device or worst on another device ^^)

Anyway, you cannot control if you're opening a tab versus a window: that's the browser (and user preferences) wich choose one or the other...

Answer 3

So I need to generate a new window instead? That I have the control? So how could I do it?

Answer 4

You are totally right. I will be thinking for a better solution. Thanks for your help.
