Link To Close Page Rails 4

Using Rails 4..

I have opened a page using javascript like so

<%= link_to "how to choose a rating", ratingsystem_path, :onclick=>"window.open(this.href,'create_company', 'height=600, width=600');return false;" %>

But when I add a link to close that page 

<%= link_to "Close page", :onclick => "window.close();" %>

It doesn't work. Am I doing this wrong? Maybe use an a tag instead?

Instead of 

<%= link_to "Close page", :onclick => "window.close();" %>

Try this:

<%= link_to 'Close page', '_self', :onclick=>'window.close();' %>

You can replace '_self' with pass nothing like ''

This works for me I hope for you the same ;)
