I have scoured the net, newsgroups, etc... and have not been able to come up with a solution to my problem. So I thought I would post the question here (i.e. break out the big guns). What I am trying to do is create a small IE window that does not retain focus, however, it should always displayed on top of all other windows (similar behavior to that of AOL Instant Messenger). I have gone the <body onBlur="self.focus()"> route which does what I want with one obvious exception. Once the window has focus, it is impossible to enter information, or even interact with any other application because...you guessed it! One click on any other window/app or even the Start button in Windows kicks off the onblur event, which in turn tells the small window to grab focus. There has to be a solution out there somewhere. Can someone please help? I need an IE based Floater! But so far all I have gotten is a big fat Microsoft turd!--Steve
P.S. I have tried Advanced open Window 2.0
