Is there a script I can use that will keep a small window on top of others? Thanks.

you have to do it from a popup and make the popup always raised

var win= window.open("test.html","hi","alwaysRaised=1");

I tried the "alwaysRaised=1" and it did not keep the window on top. Haven't seen that one before.

What you need is to use a "Modal" or "Modeless Window"

A "Modal" window will remain in focus but will not let you access the window beneath.

A "Modeless" window remains on top and allows access to the window underneath it.

Try the "Modeless" window

var newwin=showModalDialog('yourpage.html','win','dialogLeft:200px;dialogTop:200px;dialogHeight:300px;di alogWidth:200px;status:no;resizable:yes;help:no');

The above should be one line, as it has not rendered correctly in this forum

That wont let you use the mouse in other windows..
To use alwaysRaised you need to use a signed script last time i looked

He didn't ask about using the mouse in other windows. ;)
