Mailto and then close the window

Ok - found it - thanks to ideas from Kirk Trachy(Magic Button) and Mark Shnier, Your QuickBase CoachQuickBaseCoach 

Basically you can via the JavaScript open a new window with the mailto info and then close it.  Unfortunately it needs either a sleep function (seen here) or a monitor loop because if you run the close right away the mailto may not get executed.

So this code:
1) Updates the record to a "Completed" status
2) Opens a window to generate a mailto call
3) Waits for the window to be open
4) Closes the blank window remaining from the mailtto
5) Open/returns to the dashboard in the initial tab/window
