Freeze an IE window

[rsitogp]

Hi,

I want to freeze (pause) an ie window (already open), by command and unfreeze, any ideas/suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

What do you mean by "Freeze"?

Pause, like in games, you know stop it temporerly (Not webbrowser1.stop idea).

Do you mean like make the program stop responding for a little while? If so, the user might think it has crashed, and force a shutdown of it.

[rsitogp]

No that's what the user wants, don't worry it's a special purpose program, for a net game.

If you mean temporarily disabling a window then no. You can do this with any controls that you have on it such as textboxes and buttons though and replace any animated gifs with a static copy(another image) to make it appear that it's frozen but the user still has control over it and can simply close it.

I want to pause the window (actually a flash animation inside it).

[Psyrus]

I do not know anything about Flash. You'd probably have to control it (pause it) from the Flash animation. You can't control a window to that extent even if your code is what created it. If that were possible it would give you the freedom to create a fullsize window filling the screen and prevent the user from closing it.
