Tech: closing link in G.chrome

Say you use our link maker.
Return button is not available. You have to hit the close cross.
In Googlechrome you are chucked off the net.
Or, is there a trick?

You could try a different browser - one that allows you do what you want to rather than what Google wants you to do.

I almost never use Chrome, because I like more visibility of the menu and controls... but I think ctrl-W works for any browser...or almost any program.

Do be aware that ctrl-W closes whatever is 'in focus'... whether it be a tab or the entire browser.
