I don't think so...but maybe some of the gurus here know if you can.

Anybody?

Take this browser (http://dillo.auriga.wearlab.de/) or another lightweight web browser that has little source code so that it is easy to understand. Dillo is well commented, so even a non-programmer (like myself) can understand much of what is going on.

Very little programming knowledge is needed to remove the toolbars and status bar and menu. Chances are it is just a matter of commenting out some lines. This might even be a feature implimented in the ".dillorc" so check there first. The files are aptly named so you could also look in "interface.c" and "menu.c".

Then make the window hints so that the program is drawn at a level behind the kicker and without window decorations.

Then just compile the source and run the program.

there is a way to do it with Konqueror. I read it a LONG time ago on (I think) kde-look.org

Open the KDE control center , choose LookNFeel > Background, set mode to background program, then click the setup button and choose kwebdesktop as the background program.

Using KwebDesktop, I'm not able to pick any link on the web, and flash animations don't work either.


KwebDesktop just makes a screenshot of the desired web page and refreshs it automatically every amount of time (5 minutes at least).
