Hi all,  
I am poping up a window by  
\<%= link\_to(image\_tag(…), :action =\>“sample”, :popup =\>  
[‘new\_window’]) %\> as I want the action “sample” to be performed and the  
result should be displayed in the pop up. In the pop up window  
say,“sample.rhtml”, I have one submit button. I want this pop up to be  
automatically close after submitting the form’s text value to another  
action. I have tried “onsubmit” in start\_form\_tag and form\_remote\_tag.  
But its not working.Please help.

Thanks,  
Deepa
