I'm trying to make a popup including information, but I can't make a decent "Close" Hyperlink, whenever i click it, an IE question pops up asking If I want to close it, how do i get rid of this?

You may not know this, but you have to wait 24 hours to bump. The post also has to be off the front page.

Make a BYOND hyperlink, and catch it with Topic().

/*Place this somewhere in your html, 
it's your hyperlink.
By the way, 'src' is placed for the 
atom that you're trying to access.
If 'src' is a mob, catch it with mob/Topic()
if 'src' is an obj, catch it with obj/Topic()
In this case, you'll want to access the mob,
because you want to close a mob's window.*/

<a href=?src=\ref[src];action=close>

/*If this is a mob/verb or mob/proc, src is 
finebetween the brackets.  However, if this 
is a different atom's verb, use 'usr' between 
the brackets, since youstill want to access 
the mob.*/

mob/Topic(href,href_list[])
   switch(href_list["action"])
       if("close") src<<browse(null,"window="window's name you want to close here.  This should be defined in your pop-up.")
       else ..()


You just have to configure that a little.

I don't really understand, so here's my code
var/infopopup1={"
<STYLE>BODY {background: black;  color: white}</STYLE>
<body scroll=no>
<head><title>Welcome to the Magical Destiny Open Alpha</title></head>
<body>Welcome to the Magical Destiny Open Alpha<P></P>To talk with NPCs say 'Hi' or 'Hello' to them
<p></p>Report any bugs to Xeronage
<p></p> - Xeronage</body>
"}
var/const/windowsettings="window=Login;file=name;display=1;clear=1;size=350x200;border=1;can_close=0;can_resize=0;can_minimize=0;titlebar=0;"
//And its called with
usr<<browse(infopopup1,windowsettings)

Anyway, I fixed a bit of your HTML. I don't know what the P tags opening and closing does, so, I left them in there. Anyway, I assumed you're trying to do something like this:
mob/Login()
    ..()    
    var/infopopup1={"<html><head><STYLE>BODY{background:black;color:white}
    </STYLE><title>Welcome to the Magical Destiny Open Alpha</title></head>
    <body scroll=no>Welcome to the Magical Destiny Open Alpha
    <P></P>To talk with NPCs say 'Hi' or 'Hello' to them
    <p></p>Report any bugs to Xeronage<p></p> - Xeronage
    <p></p><a href=?src=\ref[src];action=closelogin>
    </body></html>"}
    src<<browse(infopopup1,windowsettings)
mob/Topic(href,href_list[])
    switch(href_list["action"])
        if("closelogin") src<<browse(null,"window=Login")
var/const/windowsettings="window=Login;display=1;clear=1;size=350x200;border=1;can_close=0;can_resize=0;can_minimize=0;titlebar=0;"


It's not exactly going to work if you just have a variable that displays the HTML, because you will not be able to place a close link in it that says 'Are you sure you wish to close this window?' or whatever it asks.
