I call this "ACW" - Another Class of Webpage; that means the website is not for attracting causal browsers but to be used as a small in-group organizing and communicating.

It is from a believe that Web environment has been intruded so badly by all these commercial activities that I need to do something to take my space back.

The only technique I know of is to start the home page with a tiny program just to open another window and close it immediately:

XML
<%
   response.write("<script>window.open('" & my_url & "','_blank','" & My_screen & "');window.close(); </script>")
<br>
where My_screen has been set to the attribute:

attribute = "status=no, toolbar=no, resizable=yes, scrollbars=yes,location=no, menubar=no, titlebar=no"
<br>
    My_Screen = "width=1024, height=718, top=0, left=0, " & attribute

%></br></br>


But it left with two problems when testing with IE:

1) it asks me whether I want to close the opening window when I issued the window.close to close it! This is a nusiance! Is there anyway to set IE (or other browser) and stop it asking the obvious?

2) The top and bottom line still occupied by the IE. Is there way to remove the IE top/bottom line? It is simple: I want my space back and I do not want to see anything I did not ask.

1. There seems to be a workaround if you just spend a few seconds Googling around. http://blogs.x2line.com/al/articles/350.aspx[^]

2. What do you mean by top/bottom line? If status and location bars are still showing try using the value 0 instead of no.

1. Thanks, I test it and the get around work. I have read a few articles in the website mentioned and it is a really very good site with concise solution to a given problem.
2. Perhasp I did not phrase my question correctly. On top, there is the page header line and it shows "Microsoft Internet Explorer" as part of the heading. This is the top line and I really do not want to see this Microsfot advert there.

The bottom line mean the PC window Start; this I can solved by enable auto-hide.
