Reason for my vote of 2
My reason for a 2 is that as the other posters have shown a google is the best thing when researching a problem

plus always let people know what you've tried it helps so we know were not repeating what you've seen already

A little google goes a long way:

< a href="javascript:window.opener='x';window.close();">Close</a>

Simple but effective.
I think 5 seconds on googl;e could have done that for him :)
