Normally, you can enable buttons (that would be disabled by default) within a JavaScript function, then bind that function to your BODY tag's onload attribute. But since you want to retrofit this functionality to existing pages, I think your best bet might be to capture all clicks before the onload event handler has fired, and cancel them: http://www.quirksmode.org/js/events_order.html Read the "W3C model" section.
