Button Bar Widget - Page - open as popup, then close when button selected

Question

I have a simple URL page.&nbsp; I created a 'Page' button on my home page from the 'Button Bar Widget'.&nbsp;

I want that page to open in a popup window and close when I hit the 'Close' button.&nbsp;
When I preview the page, the 'Close' button works fine.&nbsp; When I execute the button from the Home Page, it does not work.

Regarding opening it as a popup, I've tried multiple javascript and html options, but none have worked.&nbsp; Any help will be appreciated.

Code for the URL page is as follows:
-------------------------------------
&lt;script&gt;window.resizeTo(950,500);&lt;/script&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;u&gt;Information Text Goes Here&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;button onclick="self.close()"&gt;Close&lt;/button&gt;

Hi Aaron,
This is a limitation of Home Page buttons in QB.&nbsp; The closest you can get as a workaround is to use a Rich Text element in your Home Page and add and image of a 'button'.&nbsp; Then, you can link that image to the code page you created with the target set to 'New Window.'
