Ok, I posted this in the wrong place at first so I'm going to post it here again. I was just wondering if anyone knew (with the new version of IE if you could turn off the title bar, tool bars, etc. Basically all I want is a pop-up to come up and have just an image and then be redirected to another page after a certain amount of time. Does anyone know how to do this? Please Help!!

FYI, cross posting isn't cool.

Phenom,
Thanks for the help but I think I may have asked my question incorrectly. I am looking to turn off the windows border around it and just show a transparent image (no border, no toolbars, nothing).

that's a floating pane.. typically a div that was hidden previously is shown. Still Javascript stuff though

floating pane? whats that? I really know very little about JavaScript. Would that be what I'm looking for where i can show just a transparent bacground image?

yes. It doesn't involve creating a new window or pop-up. It's all client-side processing, pretty much. It uses CSS-P (positioning) to place the div and hide it. You use Javascript to trigger the "visibility" of the div when it needs to display then.

um... ok? so how would I do it? Just put something in some <div> tags or something like that?

hmm... ok, well that seems to be 'part' of what I want but where is the "brower object" (or whatever it would be called) so I can make it visible or not?

it's the div object you need to reference.. getElementById() or its siblings can get you the object.

ok, *sigh*... I'm sure its just my lack of knowledge with JavaScript all together and I have only been working with PHP (pretty much on my own) for about the last year or so. I'm sure I'm not explaining this correctly and I dont even know if its possible but I'm trying to hide ANY kind of browser remanance and ONLY show a table (or something) that would normally be within the browser's borders.
Has anyone even done this? Is there anyway someone could give me a bit of an example code or something about this? Again, I know almost nothing about JavaScript so all the things I find online unfortunately make absolutely no sense. Thanks again for the help.

Code: Select all
<div id="e;MyPic"e; style="e;display:none;"e;><img src="e;ghost.jpg"e;></div>
<input type="e;button"e; onclick="e;document.getElementById('MyPic').style.display = ''"e; value="e;Show Image"e;>
Does that get you started

Hmm... I'm sorry... thats not what I'm looking for. I'm looking to hide the BROWSER and show ONLY content (that would be in a table or something). I want to turn off everything BUT the image so the ONLY thing that pops up is the image. Thanks though...
