Removing Menubars and Toolbars from IE

[choxio]

I've seen several older posts saying there is no way to hide menu bars
in IE unless you call window.open().

Is this still the case?

I'm interfacing with a app that I don't have control over. The idea is
that users log into my app do whatever and I then populate form tags
with user id and password and submit the form to the other app. This
logs the user in but the called app is used for reporting and the
status bar, menu bar and tool bar take up a lot of vertical space.

That is partially correct but correct for the most part.

Yes.

You don't have control over the user's browser either.

Not sure why you do it that way, but ok.

Deal with it. Its part of scripting browsers and its there for the user
to decide, not the page author.
