Answer 1

It's much cleaner to use jsFunction for this:

<script type="text/javascript">
    window.onbeforeunload = function() {
        closeTime();
    }
</script>

<h:form id="pForm">
    <a4j:jsFunction name="closeTime"
                    action="#{controller.update}"
                    oncomplete="window.close()"/>
</h:form>
