I am creating a popup with an ordinary html link & target_blank

The new window has the following in the head

<script>self.resizeTo(550,510);
self.moveTo(165,20);
</script>

It works well. Is there anything I can add in here which would surpress any or all of , munubar, toolbar, statusbar?

Keep any answers very explicit please, I know almost nothing about scripting.

well I do believe this would work:

<script>
newwindow=window.open(url,'name','height=500,width=400,left=100,
top=100,resizable=no,scrollbars=no,toolbar=no,status=no');
</script>

Just set the variables to what they should be, the url, height, width etc.

Does this go into the body where I currently have the link. Or does it go into the head, and it gets called from the body.

The "url" part is pretty clear; "page . htm"?

The "name" part mystifies me.

I am sorry to be so ill informed, but thats why we are here, right?

Thanks

the name is the part that appears in the top(the blue part) of the browser... you would normally do this with the <title></title> tags, uhhh ya it can go anywhere in the head

After testing I found that it can be anywhere in the body and it must be like this:

<script>
newwindow=window.open('url','name','height=500,width=400,left=100,top=100,resizable=no,scrollbars=no,toolbar=no,status=no');
</script>

That has been revised from the other code which looked like:

<script>
newwindow=window.open(url,'name','height=500,width=400,left=100,
top=100,resizable=no,scrollbars=no,toolbar=no,status=no');
</script>

If you'll notice the url now has '' around it, and there is no return so there shouldn't be any errors now

By the way, you have to take out the spaces which this is adding automatically...

and one more thing, If you want it to open a new window from a link just say so and i will revise it so that you can click on a link and it will open the window right now it opens automatically when the page loads

LOG2, you are amazing.

Yes making a popup is exactly what I want. Please do add it and thanks so much.

Scratch that. I will try it first, before you go through the effort.

Are you coding by hand or by WYSIWYG?

If you use Dreamweaver or Namo Webeditor then it comes with an open link in new window option, that allows you to change all aspects of it easily.

So do you need it to do that? just incase here is the code:

PHP Code:

<script>
function linkto(inputurl){
newwindow=window.open(inputurl,'name','height=590,width=800,left=100,top=85,resizable=no,scrollbars=yes,toolbar=no,status=no');
}
</script> 


NOTE: Do not change the inputurl in this one!
And then if you want the link to open the page just make the link look like this:

<a href="javascript:linkto('url.htm')">

The url goes where it's called url.htm
