When I use a self.WinExit(); command connected to a button click event in Maintain it doesn't exit the application properly. Instead I get the error:

WebFocus was called with an invalid request.

The server version of WebFocus that I am testing on is 7.6.4 on Windows. What am I doing wrong?

In your exit-button (which should be a javascript function) code

window.close();
IWCTrigger("WINEXIT");

And then you could put the following command in your edasprof file to prevent the termination message:

MNTCON EXIT_WARNING OFF

Hope this helps ...

Thanks. That worked. Although I reversed the lines. Once the window is closed will the web browser even run the IWCTrigger statement?

Yes, I think so. I'm thinking that the browser will/can only close the window after all actions (and in this case the javascript functions) have come to an end.
I tried both ways, and could not find any difference.
