What if the user is browsing with Opera or Firefox? Don't you want to know
whether the web page is the topmost in those cases as well? Or do you only
need to know it if the user is browsing with MSIE?

Other than that, figuring out which window is the active topmost on a
user's computer can probably be figured out using window.onfocus( ) or
document.onfocu s().

Haven't tested this:

<html>
<body onfocus="alert( 'Hello, world!')">
<p>Hello, world!</p>
</body>
</html>

then when switching between different browser windows with the same page,
each page should alert.

That wasn't the question, now was it?
Don't you want to know whether the web page is the topmost in
those cases as well?
Obviously not or the question would/could have been worded differently.
Or do you only need to know it if the user is browsing with MSIE?
That appears to be what was asked. Perhaps it could even be an MSIE
Intranet situation where no other browser is used.

Other than that, figuring out which window is the active topmost on a
user's computer can probably be figured out using window.onfocus( ) or
document.onfocu s().
Or probably not. Try reading the question again.
Haven't tested this:
Perhaps you should. And then follow your own advice in another thread:

First: please to validate your page using a decent validator. Try this one:
http://validator.w3.org/
</quote>
<html>
<body onfocus="alert( 'Hello, world!')">
<p>Hello, world!</p>
</body>
</html>

then when switching between different browser windows with the same
page, each page should alert.
And that still doesn't answer the question that was asked.

BTW, your posting agent is broken.

Then please enlighten us and explain how the question can be interpreted
differently?

My posting agent broken? How so?
