What does the quit do? Quit the login? or quit the application? Based on your subject line I'm assuming just quit the login - but then how would you do anything in the app? You don't say what GUI framework you are using (and from the subject I assume it is a GUI?) but most have some kind of quit function. For example in Tkinter there is a quit() method in the top level widget and inherited by all the lower level ones. If you do just want to close a window/dialog the normal approach is just to make it invisible. In Tkinter that's done using the withdraw() method of a window. (restore it with deiconify()) Other frameworks will have their equivalent methods/functions. In some GUIs it's the window's state value that controls visibility. -- Alan G Author of the Learn to Program web site http://www.alan-g.me.uk/ http://www.amazon.com/author/alan_gauld Follow my photo-blog on Flickr at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/alangauldphotos _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
