asked on

Browser window to stay on top....

How can I make a browser window (NN4 AND IE4) to stay on top
of any other window in W95/NT???
I guess this is easy...

in the document in the opened window:

<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" onBlur="window.focus();">

PS: This can be quite irritating for the surfer to do this, since it overrides all other applications too, but that's the way to do it.

Thanks for the answer, but it's not exactly what I want as it completely overrides the other applications. I want it to behave as a Windows Help screen, i.e. staying on top but allowing access to other applications.

And the focus will also make it impossinble to fill out a form in IE.

Netscape has an alwaysRaised property in the window.open, but that needs the script to be signed...

What you want is not easy to accomplish without annoying the user... I would personally move the window out of the way and let the user position it (window.moveTo(0,0))

Michel,

The page is an Intranet HELP system. In fact,  the USERS are the ones requesting this feature. So, no much concern about annoying anyone.....
Is the alwaysRaised property (or similar) available in IE???
Thanks
