Solution 1

What are you doing in your code is loading a page using some GET request. It has nothing to do with the rendering mechanism of the browser...Your browser just know nothing of that data you got after request.send...
You can add the results from that request by replacing the inner HTML of your page or any of the elements on the page, but that may will not provide the same result, as JavaScript elements will not work...
There are samples of how to render such response into the page on Google - search for it, but it would be even better to explain why you don't want to use window.open...

thanks for comment but i just want that if user close the tab or browser then the logout page will automatically open that's it.

That's does not explain why not to use window.open!

i tried too much examples of window.open() method but none of it fulfill my requirement.
because suppose i use this code window.open("pageurl", _blank) then this will open new tab it is fine when user close the tab every time.

and if user close the browse then this method goes wrong.

do u understand my question now or not?

second approach and if i use this code :

var params = ['height=' + screen.height, 'width=' + screen.width].join(',');
var popup = window.open("Home.aspx", '_blank', params);
popup.moveTo(0, 0);

then new window open without basic browser functionality and if i close this window it will open again and again.

now do u understand my question or not?

This - in theory - does the trick...
$(window).bind('beforeunload', function (eventObject) {
var popup = window.open("http://www.microsoft.com", '_blank');
});

BUT!
1. Most (all) modern browser will identify such opening as false and will block it
2. It will not help in case you close the browser (and not the tab only) as the process will go down
3. It is a most uncommon and disturbing behavior
4. IE has some differences (as always)...
