When you click a link in the browser, is there a way to make it close the window without the player having to click the x (close button) in the corner?

I take it from the lack of responses to this problem that no one can figure out even a simple way to do it? 8P

Try this:
mob/verb/lawlie()
  src<<browse("This message will self destruct in 10 seconds.","window=lawlie")
  sleep(100)
  src<<browse(null,"window=lawlie")

In addition to what Yeller said, make sure the second part of the arg (where the "window=" part was) is exactly the same as the window that you want closed

So, like, if I had 
usr << browse ("some html junk here","window=Allarkis")
and I had links in it using the Topic proc, I could in one of the "conversation" nodes just automatically close it down like this?
area
   Adorna
      Entered(client)
         src << sound('Fates_Adorna.mid',1)
      Adorna_Exit
         Whittenhague
            Entered(client)
               usr<<browse("<title>The Portal to Whittenhague</title><font color='black' face=Times New Roman size=3>A description of Whittenhague here<p><b><u>Race Selection Options</u></b><br>Human<br>Wood Elf<p><b><a href=\"?choosewhittenhague\">Enter</b></a><br><b><a href=\"?nevermind\">Never mind.</b></a></font>","window=Allarkis")


client
   Topic(href)
      if(href=="choosewhittenhague")
         usr<<browse(null,"window=Allarkis")
         src << sound('Whittenhague.mid',1)
         usr.homeland = "Whittenhague"
         usr.loc = locate(43,60,3)
