5 characters and you want an "Ok" button to it?

Really, why don't you start doing some of your own research and testing before posting here for everyone to answer your medial questions. It makes me sick to see how long you've been a member and can't even test code first.

You kind of answered in the the title of the topic...

Set the GUI style to $WS_POPUP

to my defense, I signed up 2004 when a friend told me about it but I didnt use autoit for 4 years.. i just started a few months ago.

i've learned alot since then, and i know 4 years from now- it will be a different story.

this is my first time creating a child window. i tried creating a child popup window, before getting help but it wasnt looking as pretty as i wanted, so thats why i asked the question thought there was a style i missed or nicer/faster way of creating one.

mini GUI !

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

$gui = GUICreate("",55,1)
GUISetState()
GUISetStyle($WS_POPUP)
$input = GUICtrlCreateInput("",0,5,40,16)
GUICtrlSetLimit($input, 5)
$btn = GUICtrlCreateButton("ok",40,5,20,18)
While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    if $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then Exit
    Sleep(100)
WEnd

When you ask a question, and as you posted above you had code already, without posting that code for others to see what may be the issue, then there is no defense.

Personally, I think the majority of your questions are pure laziness and it disgust me that others take their time to answer them for you.
