Re: kiosk firefox in debian?

[Peter Colton <debian.user@bissybox.com>]

hello Wei,

Below are a few links that should be of help to you with making firefox to 
suit your situation. The work you need to do is on the browser.jar file for 
firefox. The bottom link is for a script that will kill firefox and restart 
it. this is done through xscreensaver. To edit the .jar file I have found 
that emacs dose the job well. There is no need to unzip the .jar file with 
emacs and the find option is usefull to tracks down the lines you want to 
comment out.
