Hai Uday,

 

try to use this blow value on the onclick attributre

               onclick="window.close();"

 

And also try using instead 'onclick' to 'oncompleate' attribute with same above value.

Hi Uday,

 

First open the new window you want to open with followed syntax

 

window.open('page reference','_blank');

 After opening your required window close the iframe window by "window.close();"

 

So finally onclick you need to code as followed.

 

window.open('page reference','_blank');
window.close();

 

Give a try on this, let me know in case of any concerns you face.
