Here is a Javascript solution that may help. There are directons too:

And finally, I tweaked a Javascript code chunk that was being shared on a site so that the the same browser window is reused. {Or, so I thought! Anyway, this may be useful}
Ok, I am done with the Javascript for the night... Ha! Ha!
File Attached.

This is a perfect example of where HTA would come in handy.
Here is a MSDN article that may come in hand if one is going to work further with .hta files:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/a...bjects/hta.asp
Note! I saw this warning a few lines down on the page that shows from the links above.
Sincerely,Warning HTAs can potentially expose the client machine to malicious script. HTAs, like .exe files have read/write access to the files and system registry on the client machine. Powerful executables can be produced and delivered quickly with a few short script statements. Use of HTAs is not recommended where security or the source of the file is questionable.

Try rhosk example with one line modified:
Instead of:
CAPTION = "NO"
do...
CAPTION = "YES"
Now you the user can close the window via the close button (aka. the 'x' in the upper right corner) and you can see the Title bar and it's text.
{Late Addition}
Also, try adding this line in between the <HTA:APPLICATION .. > tags:
SELECTION="YES"
What this does is allow for the user to highlight the text in the document.
Ron, ok, this is fun.. I have to admit. So far with simple URL placements in the documen I have not seen Norton throw up an alert message either!

thanks... sorry for the delay...
After checking each option... I actually like rhosk's HTA Application suggestion the best (for basic links a web page for example). I never did get the Javacript to behave the way I wanted. But the again, I know every little about Javascript (for now)
