There's no way to select and close a specific tab, and if the window wasn't opened by javascript in the first place, then it won't close it on its own. This isn't really anything related to php either as php knows nothing about the client machine, only the server. You'd be much better off asking on a javascript list instead.

I probably did state my question correctly. Let's try again... I have two(2) browser tabs open. One is a Google search and the other is my PHP script. When my PHP script exits, I want that tab to close. Sorry for any confusion.
