That's a very weird question. I guess, there might be browser specific stuff, but of course we'd have to know, what browser you're using. Talking about that, if it's firefox, then theoretically you could edit the code yourself, as it's freely available. Practically, it'd probably be an awful amount of work.

The only real solution I can think of, is if you have your internet connection running through some kind of router, which you can work with. There are some places around, where you get free WiFi here, and you normally get one site, whatever you enter into the address field, on which you have to accept their conditions or something like that. Not quite sure how they do it (haven't really thought about it either), but I'm sure one could find out.

But I guess the big question is: WHY would you want to do something like that?

Greetings,

Wow, nothing like trading down (IMHO). I would rather it went the other way myself. :-) But that's just me.

I agree with that.

This question should not find any more answers regardless of the original motivation. It is not acceptable to discuss such things as they are clearly open to malicious use.

As you visit each new Web site, a history of that visit accumulates in the address box of the IE browser. By clicking on the drop down arrow in the address box, you can easily access a visited site. Is there a way to delete just ONE of the visited addresses in the drop down address box area of the IE Browser versus deleting them all? One of the principals at my school, for some reason, wants to delete just one of the visited sites in the...

Linking to a Targeted Browser Window I'd like to open reference links to other web sites in a separate browser window from the browser window hosting my own web site pages. The Link Target reserve word "_blank" opens a blank new browser window for every link, which can sometimes result in a lot of open browser windows. Is there no way to "reuse" a previously linked browser window and have it load the new web page in Foreground

I can't make this script work properly. I've gone as far as I can with it and the rest is out of my ability. I can do some html editing but I'm lost in the Java world. The script at the bottom of the html page controls the form fields that are required. It doesn't function like it's supposed to and I can leave all the fields blank and it still submits the form. Also I can't get it to transfer the file in the upload section. The file name...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
