Randolf,

Are you, or do you know a JavaScript savant?  I am trying to create a 
very simple kiosk for the Maritime Park that sits on a PC connected 
to the Web.  We want visitors to be able to look at sites we select, 
but not modify the software on the machine.  By using the browser's 
kiosk mode and not supplying a keyboard or mouse it becomes pretty 
foolproof.  I stopped using frames and went to JavaScript and a child 
window after I discovered some of the pages we access are aggressive 
about making sure they are in their own window (some fear of stealing 
page content or the like.)  Anyway, this seams to work, but I would 
like to enhance it to restore the default window if the child window 
is closed and possibly if there has been no user activity for a 
period of time.  This is where I get to the place that someone with 
JavaScript and DOM experience could probably shortcut a lot of 
research.  I could slog through this, but would love to talk to 
someone that knows this stuff.  Any ideas?  I can send you what I 
have done if you are interested, or to a friend if you know anyone 
that might be interested.
