Issue with window.close and chrome

I'm trying to close a child window with JavaScript, and in Firefox everything works fine but in Chrome the window doesn't close.

Here is what I'm using

$(document).ready(function() {
    if (window.opener && !window.opener.closed)
        window.opener.location = "http://www.website.com"
    window.close();
});

I tried a suggestion on google, but to no avail.

Anyone having a similar issue or know of a work-around?
