I want to open a flash movie in a new window 500x400 px and without a toolbar/scrollbars etc. No problem as long as this is from a link in my own website.

However, if the link is opened from somewhere outside my site (ie. an e-mail, forum etc..) then how can I hide the toolbars and scrollbars in the window opened?

I know I can use window.resizeTo() to make the window the relevant size, but how can I hide the toolbar and scrollbars? And is it possible to save the original settings so that I can use an onUnload() to re-set the settings and avoid them having no toolbar next time they open their browser? I know that can be done for the size part.

Thanks


PS. Please remember this is a technnical question not a moral one - don't post if it's just to say 'you shouldn't mess with people's browsers' or whatever.

Its possible(though a bit crude),and to save the settings you can either use cookies???
or use some server side language to save the settings on file.

Maybe you can put your script in a «fullscreen» page...
