When I click a button it opens up a popup window, there I submit some values which will be processed under a server side code. My problem is, I need to close this window from there, I tried all the possible answers from the stackoverflow. any suggestions are appreciated

Here is the below code, which I used in the server side

echo '<script>alert("Task closed successfully"); window.close(); 
header("location: dispclosedtask.php?key=".$followuptaskid);

Get rid of all the PHP code you've shared. What you currently have is basically:

  1. JavaScript code to close current window:

     alert("Task closed successfully"); window.close();

  2. PHP code to load a different page before the browser has the chance of running prior JavaScript:

     header("location: dispclosedtask.php?key=".$followuptaskid);

Everything you need is:

<script>
alert("Task closed successfully");
window.close();
</script>
