Then put this small form, which turns the welcome screen off, in the "welcome" HTML document:
<FORM> <INPUT TYPE = "checkbox" onClick = "top.toggleWelcome()"> Don't show this welcome screen again. </FORM>You can also include this small link, which brings the user to the normal page by temporarily disabling the welcome cookie: <A HREF = "javascript:top.offTemp()">Enter Main Page</A>
