you can use the window.open method for the same. In the method u may set the attributes accordingly, so that only the browsing can be done, with no toolbars. hope it helps.

Well, that can be done only if we open the window form the javascript. what about the scenario where i dont use the window.open ot showmodal etc.

well.. u will need the window.open method.. but a lil diff way.. in the html code function redir() { window.open("new url and attributes") } this wud redirect to a new page. and the attributes that u specify wud apply.. but u will need to redirect through this

There is a problem if you use window.open() , because most pop-up blockers block window.open() , whether it is legit or not.
