window.open(URL, "height=100,width=100,status=0,toolbar=0");

It works fine when i use the Computer name to access the webpage..
eg. http://computerName:8080/test.jsp

but the same doesnt work when i give my ipaddress instead of Computername

If I'm not mistaken, this is javascript, and not java, right? I suggest asking it in a javascript forum.

ya its a javascript and i have posted it in the javaScript and Html category of javaranch

I am guessing that your browser sees one as local and one as Internet. You probably have different settings for each zone. (Yes a user can force the status bar and some other tool bars to remain with the newer browsers)

ya even i think so.. how to hide the status bar even when i give the ipAdress.. the other browser components(MenuBar ,ToolBar) hide even when i give the IPAddress or the PC name...

[Eric Pascarello]

The other components hide because you are using the explorer window instead of the Internet Browser
