_blank question

windows

Guest
I know this is a rather simple question, but here goes. Is there a way to use target="_blank" and specify a size of the _blank window. I could use javascript but that would make the page open large then resize smaller. Thanks for the reply.<!--content-->I am unclear why you should automatically have a larger window that then downsizes. Anyway, it cannot be done in pure html - javascript is the way.<!--content-->kiwibrit<br />

I was thinking that was the case but thanks for the reply and confirmation. What happens when you use an _blank it opens the new window the same size as the default size you opened you last IE to. The thing is that I need it to open way smaller like 200x200 cause that is how large the other pop ups open at. This is for an application I wrote so things have to be consistant through out the app and this is the only thing that is going to drive me bonkers. Thanks again though.<!--content-->It wouldn't go down well with me. I usually have javascript turned off and even if I did allow your pop-up box, how do you know what size to make it to accommodate the text size that I select. On my machine, I am in control.<!--content-->gizmo<br />

The application I wrote is in 100% javascript SaaS type. Really sweet, at any rate I lock the size of text even if you have a default text size I can lock it via css and classes and such. If you perchance change the size then you get a scroll or it is resizable no difference it is usually a verification of what is being done to your account.<!--content-->I agree with Gizmo - I it doesn't matter what CSS you use or if you 'lock' the text size... the user's browser has priority over any code you use (i think).<br />
<br />
But if you want a pop-up, this should work pretty well:<br />

<br />
Can I suggest another alternative?....<br />
<br />
Why not use visible/hidden divs?<br />

I used this on my last website, and it worked out pretty well. You can put a border around it, and a background color, and it'll look really nice.<br />

I like that floating div from one of the links really cool. But what I need is to have a form be submitted to another page at a specific size. The forms purpose is to upload an image as well as do some db work as well. The way the interface is designed makes the use of a new window a must. We could redesign the interface but that would change too many things and cause loads of trouble. Thank you for all the posts though. If any one knows how to submit a form via javascript and open a new window while you are at it then I am all ears. I can submit a form via javascript and do it now but have no idea to open a new window doing so.<!--content-->thechasboi... you should try posting this in the JavaScript section. maybe someone there will be able to help you out. I'm not that good with JS, or I'd try to help you further.<br />
<br />
Good luck with it.<!--content-->Thanks but just was a poke. I know this is html only but appreciate the help none the less.<!--content-->
