I tried that once and it won't work. The browser control writes directly to the 
monitor (ver od). It's not an actual object. What that means is when you 
activate the browser, it writes over and obscures all other objects on the 
screen. They all become inaccessible. 

I was trying to write a simple app that went to a URL and displayed a full 
screen of a web based streaming video for someone who was very bad with 
computers, and also had poor eyesight. The idea was, just click on the screen 
once to show the video, and again to hide it. The show part worked, but I could 
not hide it because the browser overwrote all that was on the screen, in front 
or in back.
