domref

window.toolbar

Returns the toolbar object, whose visibility can be toggled in the window.

Syntax 

tBarObj = window.menubar

Parameters

tBarObj is an object reference.

Example

The following complete HTML example shows way that the visible property of the various "bar" objects is used, and also the change to the privileges necessary to write to the visible property of any of the bars on an existing window. 

<html>
 
<head>
 
  <title>Various DOM Tests</title>
 
  <script>
 
    // changing bar states on the existing window
 
    netscape.security.PrivilegeManager.
 
        enablePrivilege("UniversalBrowserWrite");
 
    window.toolbar.visible=!window.toolbar.visible;
 
  </script>
 
</head>
 
<body>
 
  <p>Various DOM Tests</p>
 
</body>
 
</html>

Notes

To toggle the visibility of these bars, you must either sign your scripts or enable the appropriate privileges, as in the example above. Also be aware that dynamically updating the visibilty of the various toolbars can change the size of the window rather dramatically, and may affect the layout of your page.
