How can I disable the minimize/maximize button in the top right corner of
Internet Explorer with a script?

Thank you for your help in advance,
Arjan.

Is it possible to do that at all?

It is possible in Visual Basic and I have seen banners where this is
disabled. So I guess it is possible...

With HTA's you can use

<HTA:Application
MaximizeButton = No
MinimizeButton = No

I don't know if there is an equivilent with ASP or the format you need.

You can control it if you open a second window from script, but I don't think
you can manipulate the original host window, fortunately. I wouldn't want a web
page to have that much control.

Hi,

And with IEApp-generated windows, you can create a kiosk-style with no title
bar at all. Unfortunately, I think the poster wants to control a general
IE-run browser window, which (as others have already responded), I don't
believe is possible. Even if you could disable them, the option would still
exist on the taskbar button context menu.

Actually I start an instance of Internet Explorer from the script, just to
show some information. I don't think that not being able to resize the
window, is very harmful... Anyway, maybe I can use the API's if they can be
used in scripts. But it is too late to find that out now...
