Any one help me with Window Resizing?

faction6 · Jun 16, 2005

Hi guys, Im designing a web page that I need to link to directly from other sites. But when you open my page I want it to open to a specific size. The only way I know of doing this is to use java script on the link that you click to open the window, but as I will be linking to it from other sites and forums I will not be able to put a java script link in. So I was wondering if any one knew a way to put a script or some html into the actual HTML file its self?

Hope you guys can help (and I hope you get what I mean)

Cheers

Rick

Make a "launch" page then the user must click your javascript link to pop up the resized box.

I had thought about that, but i was wondering if there was a way to build it straight into the page,

Well think about it. If someone clicks your link and you have the window resize (with no menu/scroll bars I assume) what are they supposed to do when they're done with your site? They'd have to close that window and open a new browser. This is assuming you want to hide bars + resize. If you could give more information about what you're trying to do it might be easier to help.

Well its to show images,

so i can have a list of images and links

the user can click them and it will go to a page that would fit the image.

But i want to be able to post these links on forums and many other places that dont allow for any more than the link its self to be put on them.

EDIT

its ok i have managed to figer it out:

<body onLoad="window.resizeTo(500,500);" >

thanx for the help

You can do this:
<a href="http://www.google.com" onClick="NewWin=window.open('http://www.google.com', 'NewWin','toolbar=no,width=250,height=250'); return false;">Link</a>

*Edit*
You can also set status=no, scrollbars=no, position on screen, etc.

There is nothing more annoying than my browser windows resizing on their own. Please, for the sake of happy browsing, don't use window resizing unless it's a pop-up window!
