Removing unwanted toolbars

M

Maxi

I just have one index.html page with NO links NO pics. Just a simple
html page.

Whenever I open that page I want to eliminate few things like:


I don't want scroll bar -> I have a solution <body scroll="no">
I don't want status bar -> ? need solution ?
I don't want toolbar bar -> ? need solution ?
I don't want menu bar -> ? need solution ?


I JUST want the title bar, address bar and the IE window.


Please help

First of all you *cannot* switch toolbars on and off pragrammatically
in the current window (neither status, menu etc.) The only exception is
scrollbars.

- But I absolutely need it!
- Sorry, you can not.
- But somehow, even IE specific?
- Noop, absolutely no way.
- But my whole concept is based on it!
- Sorry, change your concept.

You only option is to open new window from within the existing one with
predefined properties (in hope that popup blocker will not prevent it):

var w = window.open('index.html','myWindow','location=yes');

(whatever is not set to "yes" presumed to be "no" by default).

Saving your time on the next post: :)

No, you cannot
var w = window.open('index.html','myWindow','location=yes');
window.close(); // close current window
without raising security dialog on window.close() User will be asked
first and she may opt for keeping the original window.

I don't want to open a new window.

Do you mean to say that it is impossible without opening a new window?

Briefly and plainly: yes, it is impossible without opening a new window.

What kind of homepage would that be? "Hello, world!"? Please spare us
this waste of disk space and bandwidth, and go online when you have
something really important to say.
Whenever I open that page I want to eliminate few things like:

There is no page.
I don't want scroll bar -> I have a solution <body scroll="no">
I don't want status bar -> ? need solution ?
I don't want toolbar bar -> ? need solution ?
I don't want menu bar -> ? need solution ?

No signed script, no help. It's /my/ browser, not yours.
