Get Rid of "Favorites" in IE8

[Stew]

We have a web app that we built for a customer. The app is tied to IE. The

app is set to display at a set resolution using IE. IE is only to show the

URL line and the menu bar. An extra toolbar throws things off. Scrollbars

appear where they shouldn't, etx.



No matter what I do, I can't get rid of "Favorites" and the line it's on.

Any suggestions? Thanks.

Hi Stew,



Please define what you mean by Web app?



Network administrators remove features from IE using Group Policy which 'web

apps' cannot do.



You can create a burlesque version of IE using IEAK that has the features

you want or you can use the window.open features arguments to open your web

app from a Internet shortcut in a single window with only the features you

want.



There is a new window.open feature to either inherit the IE zoom settings or

to display the window at 100% zoom. Normal practice though is not to

hardwire your page layout and metrics for Accessibility reasons.



Scrollbars appear where they shouldn't..... add this style snippet to your

page



html body (height:100%)



Your body tag should look like







with the depreciated scroll attribute and also the overflow:hidden rule to

cater for Quirks and Standards mode browsers.



Regards.
