No; I wanted JavaScript to remove the bar on any browser that would show
it, but only for this particular page.  So I shall just have to tolerate
the bar, suggest using Safari, find out why the code fails in my IE8, or
get a new computer with a later IE and a tall enough screen (pending).

Thanks.

I have a DIV which I want to be positioned absolutely near the top of
the BODY and also floated right.  Float and absolute seem incompatible,
so I presumably need to absolutely position the DIV sideways at an
offset computed from the BODY width and the DIV width.  If anyone can
provide actual code that works for that, it would help.  The DIV does
not need to be exactly at the float-right position, just near there
where there is clear space.
