You can't do that from JavaScript anyways. The only way is to open a new window without the toolbar, etc and close the old one and you'll probably get warnings in IE 7 when doing that. Also, the browser hot keys will still invoke the function even without them displayed.

Try this.

VB

window.open("http://www.yourURL.com", "Title", "width=550,height=400,toolbar=no,location=no,directories=no,statusbar=no,menubar=no, scrollbars=no,resizable=no,copyhistory=no")

It just sets the control's visibility. Functions are not locked.
