unclosable window

[warby1212]

Hi, I want to make a html page that can't be closed (no buttons) until a form is filled out. I 've seen the annoying kind that can only be closed with control->w but how do I make one? I've been looking at the javascript version of window.open(parameters) but it doesn't do the job. Can anyone help.

Cheers
Stephen

is:

window.open(targeturl,"","fullscreen");

not working for you?

That's perfect! I coudn't see that parameter in any of the places I looked. Could you point me in the direction of a good source for that sort of thing? I'd really appreciate it.

Cheers

Thanks Mate, that's great.

do you know if that HTML/DHTML reference only applies to IE? I've had trouble finding a JavaScript (that's what I would call using window.open() ) reference which clearly specifies what works in which browser.

I've had problems with the parameter fullscreen + then resizing (to create a small window with no title bar) on different browsers - would love a definitive reference by browser

I do know that Mozilla won't give you a completely chromeless window (you still get the title bar, minimise and close buttons)

window.createPopup(); gives better results for that sort of thing and lets you do chromeless windows without fiddling:
