Removing toolbars from browser

I am currently runnning a band related website and would like a visitor to my site to be able to do several things when they click on a song link.

1 Open a new browser windows that doesn't display toolbars and can be set to a certain size ie 400 by 300 pixels with the song lyrics on this page

2 Open the song file and run it in windows media player or similar

3. Create a send mail to tell me that a song has been downloaded. I have been able to get this to work partially, but it sends another mail when the page is refreshed.

Any help would be greatly nappreciated!!

RE: Removing toolbars from browser

OK, first of all the toolbars. Try this JavaScript function:

php Code:

Original - php Code
<script language="JavaScript"> <!-- Begin function popup(URL) { day = new Date(); id = day.getTime(); eval("page" + id + " = window.open(URL, '" + id + "', 'toolbar=0,scrollbars=1,location=0,statusbar=0,men ubar=0,resizable=0,width=400,height=300,left = 200,top = 200');"); } // End --> </script>

 
<script language="JavaScript">
<!-- Begin
function popup(URL) {
day = new Date();
id = day.getTime();
eval("page" + id + " = window.open(URL, '" + id + "', 'toolbar=0,scrollbars=1,location=0,statusbar=0,men  ubar=0,resizable=0,width=400,height=300,left = 200,top = 200');");
}
// End -->
</script>

To open the window when they click a link, use:

php Code:

Original - php Code
<a href="javascript<b></b>:popup('<page_name>')">Link</a>

 
<a href="javascript:popup('<page_name>')">Link</a>

RE: Removing toolbars from browser

Assuming the user has the relevant plugins installed in their browser, it should just be a case of linking to the file:

php Code:

Original - php Code
<a href="file.mp3">Listen to our new song</a>

 
<a href="file.mp3">Listen to our new song</a>

With regards to sending an email when they download the song, do you have database access? What you could do is log the download in a database, along with IP Address which would help to eliminate refreshes. Alternatively you could use sessions or cookies to pass a variable across. Perhaps pass a variable of the current time, then check to see if the page is refreshed within the next hour. Any preferences?
