Always on top -> not using onBlue/focus

[2good2b]

Hi,
I want to have a pop-up window remain on top, while allowing user to
do other things-
(In my case - I want to allow the user to watch video on a small
screen)
I saw people recommanding using Focus method in onBlur event, but this
kind of freezes all other windows.
Any advice?
Thanks

You, as a user can have it, NVIDIA has it in its nView options.

But NOT with clientside javascript,
as that functionality does not belong to the browser window.

Do not even try to take away the freedom of the user on his or her machine.

If it were possible at all it would be very impolite.

I know how it can be done in software, but I wonder if there's any way
I can do it through the browser itself.
Since it is for the benefit of my users, I believe some of the would
be willing to install a small activex.
If they do - can it be done?

Keep wondering, but it is already answered above.

"Benefit"?
That is what all anonymous spammers say:
