closing Safari completely

Recommended Posts

I know how to use js to close browser windows and in fact I can close IE completely but I can't seem to do it with Safari on an iphone.  It closes the current app window but then either switches to another app or opens a blank window and waits for me to hit the home button.

 

Can one use JS to close the entire browser on an iphone?

I'm guessing you're not a Macintosh user.

Since forever Macs have had a different approach to software.

In windows, typically, when you close the application's last window, the application will quit, on a Mac it wont. cmd+w closes windows, but to quit the application you need to use cmd+q. I don't own an iphone, but since it's Apple, I'm assuming it works the same way, so whatever js you're using is only good to close windows, not quit the actual application (although in windows it seems to work because the apps auto-quit after last window is closed)

 

Hope this helps.
