asked on
??IE8 on XP - want to remove ALL menu and search bars ?? how ??
I have a KIOSK machine running XP
with
IE8.
users can only go to a very small number of pages as specified by links on the home page.
I would like to remove ALL bars except
for space for a hidden toolbar with a print button.
Thus,
I would like to remove the:
search bar
tools bar
address bar
etc.
thanks

What about View | Full Screen?
There is actually a "kiosk" mode that's great for development/testing.
Try this in the Start --> Run --> Open box: iexplore.exe -k http://www.google.com
The "-k" tells it to run in the kiosk mode.
But don't use it like this in a production environment because users can still hit Alt-F4, CTRL-ALT-DEL, etc.

Right click the side to the right of the adress bar or the bar with tools and theres a little menu which allows you to select what bars show up.
would disabling the address bar be sufficient ?

i don't want the stuff to show up.
