Can anybody recommend a script for a pop up window (specified size) that works in IE5+ as well as Netscape 4+?

@AnjaauthorJul 16.2003 — Thanks for the scripts. Is there a possibility to have the pop up window open in the middle of the screen? Again, it needs to work both in IE5+ and Netscape 4+.

onclick="window.open('thewindow.html','newWin','width=150,height=130,top=525,left=800,dependent=yes,alwaysRaised=yes,resizable=1')" width="16" height="16" border="0" alt="Edit Text"></a>

@CharlesJul 16.2003 — [font=georgia]That will only work if the screen is 1900 x 1310 pixels in size and it will give you unacceptable results in Opera - sometimes. And the A element has no "alt" attribute.[/font]

[font=monospace]<script type="text/javascript">

<!--

function newWin (url, height, width) {

if (navigator.appName == 'Opera') return true;

var geom = 'scrollbars';

geom += ',height=' + height;

geom += ',width=' + width;

geom += ',top=' + Math.round((screen.height - height) / 2);

geom += ',left=' + Math.round((screen.width - width) / 2);

window.open (url, 'child', geom);

return false;

}

// -->

</script>

<a href="http://www.w3.org/" onclick="return newWin (this.href, 400, 300)">W3C</a>[/font]

@AnjaauthorAug 26.2003 — Hi Charles

I tried your code and it works fine in IE6, but in Netscape® Navigator 4.08 I get this message:

HTTP Error 404

404 Not Found

Here is the URL to the page: http://www.nsw.redcross.org.au/pages/g3wineclub_2.html

The link is "Tyrrell’s Vat 47 Hunter Chardonnay 2000".

@CharlesAug 26.2003 — [font=georgia]That's a bit odd. Are you sure that version of Netscape can find the page when you remove the JavaScript?[/font]

@dragleAug 26.2003 — Hi Anja,

The 404 error isn't coming from the newWin script; it's coming from the style sheet of your requested page. NS4.x will report a 404 error if you link to an external style sheet that doesn't exist. I.E., in the page you are loading in the new window you have this:

[CODE]
<link rel="stylesheet" href="../styles.css">
<title>Australian Red Cross NSW Wine Club</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="styles.css">
[/CODE]

It's the second reference to styles.css that's triggering the problem, there isn't a copy of that file in the same directory as the page and thus the 404 is triggered.

Cheers!

@AnjaauthorAug 27.2003 — Thanks guys!

It was indeed the missing style sheet link that caused the error in Netscape.

Success!
