    To my knowledge, you cannot do this, at least not easily. There is more than likely some way to do it, but 70 pop ups would cause lag, and with most people's browser security, the function to close the windows would either not work, or would create another pop up asking the user permission to close the window. I would say that you should start brainstorming on how to get the task accomplished without the 70 pop ups.
