    hi all, ive an issue..i created a web application..The link is like this http://servername/abc/login.aspx. In the login page ive written the following javascript function var win = open ('Login.aspx', 'login','fullscreen=yes, scrollbars=auto'); to maximise the page fully thereby hiding the URL.Its working fine in the local servers(dev,beta and test server).But when i deploy it in the production server(internet)in the client place,the URL with the above link becomes apparent causing concern.I think there is something to do with the security settings of the browser.But tats gonna b a herculean task to go and change in each and every client's pc..Can any1 help me find a best solution for this issue?Thanks in advance.. Note:This happnens in IE 7.0 only

      Don't even bother. If it is such a problem that users know the URL, then you are doing osmething wrong.

        hi all, With reference to my earlier query,i found out that the security settings is the main issue.It works 5n in IE6.0 irrespective of the security settings(whethr medium,low-medium or high) whereas in IE7.0 if we change the security settings to medium-high the address bar and the title bar becomes visible which causes concern.Can any one tell me whethr it is possible to control the security settings via coding?if yes then how?

          Good grief - of course not!! Just imagine if any web site you visited could control the security settings of your browser! Try thinking before you ask...
