I can't imagine how anyone could thing this is a good idea!
What's next? Change my browser preferences without asking me? Move some
files around on my hard drive?
FWIW, PHP is a SERVER SIDE language. It doesn't interact with the
browser... by the time your browser recieves a page, it's just plain HTML,
which can be seen with view > source.
To do something as horrid as closing a browser, it would have to be done
with something like JavaScript on the browser (client-side). For example,
self.close() (forget exact syntax) in JavaScript may do what you want.
I still can't see an occasion where you'd want this... at least not on a
consumer site.
