Hi Oriane,

It seems you want to open the web browser windows in a customized model.
As
far as I know, the window.open javascript function can help open a browser
window with some properties(such as title bar, control bar...) customized.

Thanks for the link. I've tried that but there is one withdrawal I can't
explain. I make use of Ajax server pop up extender, and they don't behave as
they should in the window opened with the "open" Javascript function, which
makes this solution not relevant...

Thanks for your reply Oriane,

The ajax popup box are not real dialog. They're simulate in the same page
via some dynamically created div /layer. For your scenario, I think the
existing web page programming interface is quite limited to implement all
the effects. Where would your web application run at, a internet
envrionment or in an intranet local domain? For intranet scenario, maybe a
rich client approach would be better since they can give you more control
over the client machine.

Sincerely,

Steven Cheng

Intranet.

Yes...but no. We don't want the user to install anything on the machine. It
has to be a light client :-(

Thanks for your followup Oriane,

That does be quite a difficult problem. Silverlight will be the minimal
rich client solution available. And if zero-deployment is hard rule, so far
I think using ajax to do the status polling would be the best solution.

The "yes ...but no" tells me you're hosed. The requirement for the
client application to have a specialized UI around its browser control
describes a custom client. This contradicts the requirement that no
custom client is to be installed. Now the task is to figure out how to
make a generic browser application (not the web app) behave as if it
were a Vista widget.

In a Vista world a similar task would be to run a Vista widget on a
Vista machine without installing the widget.
