Oh - so good ! I know a bit about webkit - and how easy it is to make it.

So good news !

Thanks John - again.

Well, you could implement a "Safari-lite" inside your app extremely easily. It's just a WebKit pane.

Dear all,
I have succeeded - with http://developer.apple.com/technotes/ tn2002/tn2062.html#Section3 - to have my app doing a QuitFinder() and do the full SetSystemUIMode, but ...
But the technote says :
"When controlling or disabling features of Mac OS X system using SetSystemUIMode the requested behaviors are only in effect while the process which called SetSystemUIMode is frontmost. That is, if another application becomes frontmost after SetSystemUIMode is called, the user interface mode requested will no longer be in effect."

But the least to say is that a kiosk app is to give a user the ability to launch - from there - other applications ! And who wants to retrieve Finder, Menu bar Apple menu and the Dock when he strove to make them quit in the calling kiosk app ?

So how to do ? Stupid ? Is there a possibility to have Safari - the launched app - doing a QuitFinder() and a SetSystemUIMode (kUIModeAllHidden, ..) in its applicationDidFinishLaunching: delegate method - as I do it in my app ?
Filling dumb.
Francis
