Answer 1

If you are talking about the close (x) button on the window frame itself then the answer is you can't. It's impossible there is no way in _any_ language to hide that. It's controlled by the operating system.



If you want a popup on which you have complete control you'll want to look into DHTML popups.

Answer 2

It is not possible to do this in Javascript. However, you could handle the close event of the form.

You could also set the titlebar parameter in window.open() to 0.

Answer 3

As others have mentioned, you can't gain control of the close control of the window itself. For control of hide/display or greying of a close button, you're probably best going with Ajax to dynamically maintain the button properties as needed.
