Explorer inside of Internet Explorer

snootalope · Dec 6, 2002

Ok, I've done web pages before but this is new to me.. I'm now responsible for setting up an INTERNAL page that can take people to multiple directories within our domain. Right now, I have them hlinked to a certain directory, but it turns the page into a Exlporer window instead of keeping it an Internt Explorer window.. I hope that's not confusing.. Please help!

This script keeps IE open but adds the familiar Explorer interface in a new window on top of it.

<html>
<head>
<title>Operations Main Menu</title>

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!-- Begin
function DriveList()
{
var folder=document.Drive.Name.options[document.Drive.Name.selectedIndex].value;
alert("To see the most files, choose View > List&quot

;
window.open(folder,"logs","menubar=yes,toolbars=no,width=790,height=590,dependent&quot

;
}
// End -->
</script>

</HEAD>
<BODY text="#008000" link="#008000" vlink="#00FF00" alink="#008000">
<br>

<FORM NAME="Drive">
<P>Choose a Log:
<SELECT NAME="Name" LENGTH=5 onChange="DriveList();" size="1">
<OPTION VALUE="

http://myweb/BlenderLogs/">Blender

Logs</OPTION>
<OPTION VALUE="\\myserver\logs\CrudeLogs\">Crude Logs</OPTION>
</SELECT>
</FORM>

</html>
</body>

This shows the list of files with icons. I'd rather have the results displayed in the List format without the icon, but don't know how to do that programmatically, so I added the Alert box to suggest that to the users.
