OPEN NEW WINDOW IN KIOSK MODE

I

iloveny

Is there anyway we can create a link that will open a new window, but the new
window will be in KIOSK mode?

FYI, Kiosk mode is an internet explorer window without any menu, toolbar or
address bar.

Thanks for the HELP !!!

No.
It can only be done when opening IE on a client machine. Not from a web site
link.

Put this in the head of your Page

<script>
<!--
function fullwin(){
window.open("sample.htm","","fullscreen,scrollbars")
}
//-->
</script>



Put this in the body....

<input type="button" onClick="fullwin()" value="Open window">

Have you checked this in IE 6 in Windows XP SP 2 ??

Just curious.

Also, you might want to give the user something clickable in the kiosk window to close the
page.

It is important to note that "fullscreen" is *not* kiosk mode.

I thought it might.
I'm on my 2K machine right now or I would have checked myself.

It does look the same, but it doesn't behave the same. See the following
article for details about what is different in Kiosk mode:
