Closing forms after successful submission Rails 3
I have a form in my rails 3 app that is used to create new tags. This page is opened in a new window and I would like for that window to close after a successful submission of a new tag. How should I go about doing that.
I tried <%= f.submit "Create Tag", :onclick => "window.close()" %> and that didn't work - it still followed through with the redirection.
How might I redirect to a javascript file that would close the window?
Here I tried to redirect to another html page, but it still doesn't close when I use rails, even though it works when I just load it manually.

You can use render :text => '<script type="text/javascript"> window.close() </script> in your controller to close the window afterwards.
An alternative solution could be render :action => "window_closer" with windows_closer.html.erb being a HTML file with the same code (and maybe a body and a "Please close window now" text).
I used the best answer on this forum and it seems to work ... I'm not quite sure why.

window.open('', '_self', '');
window.close();
