I'm trying to put together a Java Webstart app, but don't want it to display the Webstart splash screen, or "downloading app" boxes. Is there any way I can turn them off? (I'm fine with it displaying the Permissions Request box, but nothing else).

Yes, use the -nosplash option.

Place this:

<argument>-nosplash</argument>

in your JNLP document.

Or you can use your on startup image:

MyProject1.0 My Company. Application Launcher For MyProject1.0 ....

Note, that for production use you might want the visual feedback to users, to avoid the "It doesn't work today" (where a big update must be downloaded over a slow line resulting in long startup times).

What I'd like to do is to have the feedback be in my page instead, the only reason I'm even using WebStart is because it loads in a separate process and hence won't hang the browser.
