Hi,
Can a window be opened without a titlebar? Can an alert message box be
opened without a titlebar and an OK button?
I'm trying to display something like a tooltip when the onclick event
occurs.
Thanks,

No.

No. If it could, how in the world would you ever dismiss it?

Then use a tooltip. A hidden div and make it visible.

I'm new to javascript. You say, "... use a tooltip." Does such a thing
exist in javascript? (I only mentioned it because I'm familiar with them
in C++.)
The idea is to have the onclick event of a table's td element cause a
small window / message box to appear for a few seconds which will show
some additional information about the item in the table cell. setTimeout()
will control the duration of the box. HTML's div element won't do.
Thanks,
Dan

Tooltips (as they are called) are available in plain HTML on certain
elements. But basically all a tooltip is is a box that pops up for a
specified amount of time.

I don't recall the exact name, I think it is DynLib or something close,
that does precisely what you are wanting to do.

Why dismiss the most dependable way of doing what you want to do? Thanks, Dan

Sorry for top-posting. Visual limitations make it very difficult for
me to do.
I'll try to track down dynlib, as you suggested.
Using the div element or updating a form's text field requires that
the whole page is reloaded. That would be distracting to my clients.
Using something like a timed box would be unobtrusive and still make
the additional information available.
The best solution so far is to have the event call two functions,
both of which update the status bar. The first function displays the
information in the status bar, and the second function uses
setTimeout() to replace the above information, after a delay, with
the document's URL. It's working fine. I would rather find a
tooltip-like solution, though.

Huh? Who says you can't update a form field or a div tag without
reloading the page? Search the FAQ for DynWrite. It provides the means
to change the contents of a DIV tag. (or suitable element with an ID).

Beware of browsers that do not allow manipulation of the status bar. It
makes your script not "work" anymore.

Many modern browsers (NS 7.x, NS 8, Mozilla 1.x, Firefox 1.x, Opera 7+,
Maxthon, etc.) now prevent scripters from abusing the text of status
bar: a very good decision from browser vendors IMO. Users hate spamming
text running in status bar.

I do not understand why you have not first tried to use the title
attribute: this is a sound, sane, javascript-free, css-free way to
provide an advisory info attached to an element.
This is what I would recommend you or anyone to use first.
99.99% of all webpages done on the web do not need more than the title
attribute for . http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/...tml#adef-title
If the info is important for the user to know, to read, then you should
not look for tooltip to convey such info.

Hi. All. I need open a browser (IE5.5 or letter) to full screen
like F11 pressed.
I use a little trick. Open new window, and close old:
var win = window.open('index.aspx','',"channelmode=yes,scrollbars=yes,status=no,toolbar=no,menubar=no,titlebar=no,resizable=no");
opener=self;
window.close();
This code open window WITH titlebar!!!!
If i close it and open new - it without... WHY?
I need it without titlebar in firsttime!
What I can do?

Does anyone know how to replace <a href="url" target="_blank"> with

I've tried document.open, and window.target, but nothing I do seems to
open in a new window.

Hello,
I am trying to open a window containing an image and I would like
the image to be flush against the window -- i.e. have no padding or
border. Can I make this happen with a single call to a window.open
function? I would prefer not to create a separate HTML page. So far
all I have is the basic
var cwin = window.open('images/KJV-THANKS.gif',
'Thanks', 'width=243,height=420,');
cwin.focus();
