Chrome without the chrome? [closed]

Question

I'm developing a desktop application which is completely written in javascript + web services. I'd like to host it in a chromeless web browser. So basically just a window. I don't want the URL bar, I don't want the big blue bar, etc. I just want a window. Without anything. (although I may want an "x" to close it).

I'm not sure if chrome supports this, but I'm looking for a webkit based browser that can do this. (I looked into C#/Awesomium but I'd rather have a regular mainstream browser rather than updating pesky DLLs all the time to support new features)

If you are working in Windows and you have Chrome installed you can create a shortcut with the following Target:

C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe --app=http://google.com

And Start In:

C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application

This will give you what you want.

To do this on any web page in Chrome go to the wrench --> tools --> Create application shortcuts, here you can add it to Desktop / Start Menu / Pin to Taskbar
