No Scrollbars!

I have created a Full-Screen website, but when I open it in IE, it will display horizontal and vertical scrollbars. Mozilla doesn't have this problem.

You can see the website here;

Can any one help me with removing the scrollbars in IE, without affecting the iFrames?

#1: Do not have popup windows.

#2: Do not force a full screen window.

#3: No iFrames (not valid)

#4: Don't make a webpage that relies 100% on Javascript.

Pop-up blocker?! Then the Full-Screen pop-up will not be shown.

#1: Do not have popup windows.
-> I know

#2: Do not force a full screen window.
-> Making the same webpage with a resolution of 1004 pixels width, didn't gave the same effect

#3: No iFrames (not valid)
-> Why not? I can't include with PHP on that server. And not interessed in buying hosting.

#4: Don't make a webpage that relies 100% on Javascript.
-> I don't use ANY Javascript!

A webpage with a width of 1004px is a horrible idea anyway. What about people on 800x600 resolutions. Or even 1024x768 might have trouble with that. If you are going to make a fixed width site, make it no more than 750px.

iFrames are only visible in Internet Explorer, thus a huge chunk of the web is not able to view your site.

And no javascript?

Code:

<script>
<!--
function fullwin(){
window.open("indexu.htm","","fullscreen")
}
//-->
</script>

Okay, only that piece of Javascript.

And since when do people browse with a 800x600 resolution? I hardly see them around.

I believe most computer users in the world are still either on 15" monitors or 17" with 800x600. This is because in a lot of countries hardware is expensive, and in 99% of public internet cafes and such, hardware is almost never updated. And school computers often have 15" screens. Designing solely for 1024x768 is an extremely bad idea, for any kind of site.

Also, who doesn't have a popup blocker? Actually, a lot of people don't. But I think the percentage of those who have one is even higher than those browsing on 800x600. Nowadays just about anything helps you block popups: almost any firewall, almost any IE mod (i.e. Avant, NetCaptor), most non-IE browsers, not to mention special software just for popup blocking. If your site works only for people on 1024x768 AND for those who have JS enables AND for those who don't have a popup blocker, it will work for about 30% of everyone.

Not to mention that no one would like the site because no one likes their screen going full for no apparent reason (didn't you think there's a reason ppl disable JavaScript?), and of course no one likes popups.

By the way, you have 'only one piece of JavaScript', but you have to understand that as long as your site RELIES on it, it won't work at all for ppl without JavaScript (unless you add <noscript>).

For example, if you'd use a million lines of JavaScript for (for example) highlighting words that the user chooses in red, then it would still be better than having one line which displays the entire content of your site. Of course, you can amend that by using the <noscript> tag.
