I never realized that! But, (not that I didn't believe you but I like to see for myself) I just tested it in Mozilla 0.9.9 for OS X, and it -sort- of works. The "Favorites" bar appears, but the navigation bar (with forward/backward buttons) doesn't appear. BUT... with a bit of fudging, I can get it to appear (playing with the menu settings and clicking the "Toolbar" button that appears in every Aqua window). Also, the window is resizeable. So it looks like you can "suggest" to Mozilla that it not display the nav bar, but you can't "force" it like you do in Explorer. Erik PS: some testing with MSIE5.1 in OS X shows that by clicking the "toolbar" button mentioned above, you can actually bring back scroll bars, nav bar, and window-resizeability. But I'm glad to know that this isn't a true JavaScript feature, rather an MSIE extension of sorts... ---- Erik Price Web Developer Temp Media Lab, H.H. Brown pricee@hhbrown.com
