open a webpage in kiosk mode

Hello,

did anyone know how to load a webpage in 'kiosk mode'. This should perform a webpage in a predefined size without the close -, minimize- and maximize- button.

Is this mode browser independent so that it works with the common browsers like internet explorer, mozilla, firefox, opera, etc.

thank you in advance.

Your help is greatly appreciated.

greatings hugomanGah, I dont remember the exact code for this but you can take away most of the browser toolbars and such with javascript. Make a function to call a new window and you can set the title, size, what tool bars appear, and what status bar appears. Ill run through some stuff to see if I can find it for you.
Here is a javascript snippet that will do it

window.open('abcd.html', null, 'width=790,height=544,top=' + (screen.height-600)/2 + ',left=' + (screen.width-800)/2 + ',directories=no, Toolbar=no, resizable=yes, menubar=no, ScrollBars=yes, titlebar=no');

The titlebar option is supported only in Javascript 1.2. From referece...
titlebar (JavaScript 1.2): If yes, creates a window with a title bar. To set
the titlebar to no, set this feature in a signed script.

To perform the following operations, you need the UniversalBrowserWrite
privilege:
? To create a window smaller than 100 x 100 pixels or larger than the screen
can accommodate by using innerWidth, innerHeight, outerWidth, and
outerHeight.
? To place a window off screen by using screenX and screenY.
? To create a window without a titlebar by using titlebar.
? To use alwaysRaised, alwaysLowered, or z-lock for any setting.
For information on security, see the Client-Side JavaScript Guide.

Hope this helps

window.open("MasterPage.html",null,"toolbar=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,location=no,directories=no,status=no,titlebar=no,fullscreen=yes");

self.resizeTo(screen.width,screen.height);

self.moveTo(0,0);

//if(navigator.appName == "Microsoft Internet Explorer")

if(browser =="Microsoft Internet Explorer")

{

if(b_version =="7")

window.open('','_self');

else

window.opener = self;

window.close();

}

else

{

window.open('','_parent','');

window.close();

}

hope this will be of some help
