Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
May 01.2005

Hi,

Apololgies first of all as I have previously posted this in the ‘Java’ forum by mistake.

I am looking for the javascript for a decent pop up window as a ‘welcome’ when someone opens my index page. I don’t wany anything too in-your-face.

Does anyone know where I can find a script, or can someone provide me with this? I do not do javascript myself but I know how to past the relevant script into my html pages.

Thanks

Ray

@VladdyMay 01.2005 — The best welcome screen is a home page with easily accessible information.

Any pop-up window is an "in-you-face" annoyance and the best thing you can do is stop wasting your time trying to make one.

but because you asked ,

you will ened a function that opens a window with your welcome html document,

sized to a size that is correct.

and call the function from the onload in the body.

simpe enough i think.even though its a bit pointless .just thought its nice to help .ha =)

@StevosMay 01.2005 — If you want to do it, do try this:

[code=html]<script type="text/javascript">

<!--

document.onload=newWindow()

function newWindow() { welcomeWindow = window.open("YOUR_PAGE_HERE", "welcome", "width=330,height=250") }

// -->

</script>[/code]
Just cut and paste that in it's fullness into your document. Just one thing though, replace "YOUR_PAGE_HERE" with the filename of the file you want to have appear in the new window. Like the others said though, it isn't the best idea.

Success!
