Disabling the 'X' button on the browser?

[Ron]

I am opening a new window which has a control button to close the window once all information has been entered. I do not want the user to be able to close the window by clicking on the 'X' button to close the window.

Is there any way to disable the 'X' button on the top right corner of the browser?

Thanks in advance

there used to be a "chromeless" window. I don't remember where I saw it.
maybe you could simply use a "layer" rather than a window?

How are you going to prevent the user from:

1. Hitting ALT-F4 to close the window
2. Using Task Manager to close the window
3. Rebooting the machine

Bottom line is this: Trying to stop users from controlling what applications
are running on their machine is bad programming practice, for all kinds of
reasons. You need to handle the eventuality that a user will close this
window.
