I need 2 things.

1) my index.asp to open in full screen mode not maximized. I don;t care what it takes*; java, javascript, vbscript, asp, non-local hta, as long as it runs on IIS - no cgi or php.

2) Anytime this full screen window is closed, all browser windows** should close automatically. However, if the full screen window redirects to another page, it cannot close other browser windows.

I cannot use a popup because index.asp (parent) cannot be closed by the self.close() method without user intervention. Since we are limiting access, the user cannot be allowed to use this window to browse.

** We are willing to compromise on just browser windows spawned from the full screen. This may or may not be different from all open browser windows - if this makes any difference or make things easier.

Remote HTA applications bring up that annoying "save as" box. If we can suppress that, that may be an option too.

sounds like you are trying to make a warez site... have you tried to search for a javascript that does this?

Not a warez site, an internet lounge with restricted internet access.

I got by the full screen issue becasue IE6 has loosened some of the security governing closig of parent windows, but I still need the close function if the full screen window is ever closed, thanks.
