First off, answer me this: What IS the downloadable "RS Client" featured on runescape.com? Well, all it is is simply a window with an Internet Explorer frame inside of it. Nothing special; It is basically like a blank IE window without the tabs and buttons.

How does this apply to Firefox? Well, I will show you a simple trick that will give you a Runescape window, -just- like the official one, straight from a bookmark! And, this will work in both Firefox, and IE. It will probably work in other browsers also!


Here is what you do:
One, create a new bookmark. When you get to a place where you can add/edit the "location", or URL to it, you need to put this code in that spot:
CODE

javascript:%20window.open('http://www.runescape.com/game.ws?m=1&j=1','RuneScape','top=400,left=400,width=1025,height=678,status=no,scrollbars=no,resizable=yes,menubar=no,toolbar=no,directories=no');

Name it whatever you wish, and save it.
When you click the link, you should have a window pop up, with nothing but the URL bar(This is a browser setting; you can make it so that this code will remove that too if you really need it).

There you go. I hope you like it!

Note: In case you are wondering, I cannot post a working, clickable example in this post(or on our forums, website), due to modern browser security rules. Nothing I can do about that.

If you are annoyed by that bar at the top taking up space, heres an alternate code:
CODE

javascript: window.open('http://robbiethe1st.afraid.org/openwindow.html','RuneScape','top=400,left=400,width=1025,height=678,status=no,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes,menubar=no,toolbar=no,directories=no');

I just made a "window" inside that, pushed up so you can't see the silver bar there.
It will "work" with F2P, but will only partially block the ad and look horrible in the process. I suggest AdBlockPlus for blocking the ads if you are so inclined.

Does it still work?
I've followed the steps carefully but when I click to open the bookmark it does nothing at all.

Since it's over a year old probably not. I'm sure if asked he can update it.
