Description

How do I enable the ActiveX control to allow users to press
ALT and F4 to close the browser window when they are on the
AS400 logon page BUT not any other screen. We are using
5250 emulation and have recently purchased this product.
The Function keys have recently been implemented but we are
still having problems with some of them.

Alex,
Since Alt-F4 is the Windows accelerator for window close,
I'm not sure we can trap it--with IE5, I believe it might be
possible to trap it as an onclose event of the window, but
am not sure.
If implemented from the keyboard side (as opposed to the
onclose side), you will still have the exposure of someone
closing from the X in the upper right.
Note that implementing an active timeout can enable you to
recover sessions as well as logoff a user in a
global.timeout section.
Active timeouts are enabled using a timer driven section
such as:
<tesection monitor
when timeinterval is 60> <!-- every minute -->
<teshow ManageSessions("sweep","")>
</tesection>
The above will actively sweep once a minute for any sessions
that have been idle for the amount of time specified in
the Admin Console Settings page.

The browser is displayed full screen so they have no IE
controls available including the "x" in the top right hand
corner. The ALT + F4 button doesn't work as screensurfer
takes control of the browser, as I have been told.

All Ok now.
I have modified global.stml so that when on the logon
screen only, a butoon shows that perfoms the javascript
window.close function
