Using javascript, I want to force a browser window to close after
about 30 minutes of non-use. Can someone point me to a script that can
do this?

I assume I could use the setTimeout function and keep re-setting it
whenever the mouse is moved. 

Is there a better way?

Write it yourself.

\o/

(function(){
   var timer;
   (document.onmousemove = document.onkeydown = function(){
     clearTimeout(timer), timer = setTimeout("window.close();", 1800000);
   })();
})();

Thank you, Jonas. It's good to see that some people, like you, are
here to actually help others.

Hmmm, not at all, I'm here just to spend some free time, discuss and
expose my opinion about unuseful things, but I really try to help
sometimes, anyway thanks :]

I want to discuss with Mr. Spock again, maybe I can beat my off-topic
record of 100 msgs, but he is thousands stronger than me ='/
