removing address,tool menu bars

I use
<form action="screen. php" target="_blank" method="post"an d a submit button
to open a new separate window which is simply a display screen. I therefore
do not wish to have the address, tool and menu bars displayed. Can I do this
from the
form script? or would I have to put some HTML script on the page that is to
be opened. or is it only possible with java script?

Can anyone offer a solution on how to do this?

Thanks Ian

Only with JavaScript *if* the client allows.

I forgot to mention $_POST[variables] need to be carried forward to the new
page for filtering the data displayed there.

If the popup is necessary then you should advise your visitors to be
sure to turn on JS. If it's for advertising, then f--k you.

Do I understand you? You want to change how my browser appears and
works after I put an effort into making it appear and work exactly the
way I want it?

You can't. I use SeaMonkey as my browser. I installed an extension
that creates a non-standard toolbar that, if you suppress any of the
standard bars, this bar will still remain. On this bar, I have a button
that restores the other bars.

Why is everyone getting uptight about this?
Perhaps it is easier if you see the service I am providing my users and then
you will understand why it is not nessessary to have clutter like tool and
address bars

Typo, out of habit. Remove the trailing semicolon, don't forget the feature
tests at runtime, and it should work.

Why do you suppose?

Actually clicking the example (image) doesn't do anything. I have to click
the "Click here" (where have I seen that before? ;-) ) to get the popup.

At least you left me the X in the upper right so I can close the window.

Pity you took away the scrollbars, though. How am I supposed to see the
content past the right and lower edges?

The "uptightnes s" is because snatching control from visitors is a rude
thing to do. Discussed in c.i.w.a.h and even alt.html often. As
publishers/developers we should have no reason to expect that visitors
enjoy having their font-size or other usability preferences ignored or
overruled. When a user thinks toolbars are "clutter", she can hide them.

Also (and in the same vein): Markup and CSS are invalid in both main window
and popup. You set text color and some BG colors, but not all BG colors.
Text is too small. The box with "If you are having any difficulties with
this service..." is hard to read because of the low contrast colors,
worsened by the text size. Text is specified in px. Etc. All the usual
things that get discussed here (c.i.w.a.h, a.html) regularly.

But given that your "service" is to put distracting scrolling text and
marquees on your (clients') users' screens, I can see why you might not
care about whether they can control their windows. The service is obnoxious
(whether you have customers for it or not), so its implementation might
well be, too.

In any case, you got your technical answer in the first reply.
