I tried the original code and got the error that the other person had. So I took out the backslashes before the single quotes. That worked for me.
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"><!--
window.open("mywindow.htm","newwindow","width=725,height=125");
setTimeout('window.close()',5000);
//--></SCRIPT>
Then I wanted to get rid of the confirmation box. So I tried a suggestion from http://blogs.x2line.com/al/articles/350.aspx
I did not quite understand the reasoning but it works. Go to the link for the explanation. I needed to open a window to the application that did not have a menu system so I threw in a focus call to bring the new window to the front.
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"><!--
NewWindow = window.open("mywindow.htm","newwindow","width=725,height=125");
NewWindow.focus();
window.opener = 'x';
setTimeout('window.close()',5000);
//--></SCRIPT>
