setting a window with fixed size to pop up when link is clicked?

@jacobdeschFeb 14.2006

Can anyone tell me how to open a new window that is not resizeable, but is of a fixed size when I click the link on the original page? Should I be using HTML or is it a Java problem? I need a window to pop up snapped to the size of my flash content (775×680) and I can’t figure it out. I’m stuck and getting close to a deadline, please help!

HTML

@KDLAFeb 14.2006 — #Put this in the <head>

<script type="text/javascript">

var newwindow;

function flashwindow(url)

{

newwindow=window.open(url,'name','height=680,width=775,status=yes,left=75,top=100');

if (window.focus) {newwindow.focus()}

}

</script>

And use this for the link:

<a href="javascript:flashwindow('fileaddress.htm');">Link Text</a>

You'll need to change the fileaddress.htm to the proper address.

@welshFeb 14.2006 — #post the page with the code on it.

@jacobdeschauthorFeb 14.2006 — #ok, the original page is http://www.jacobdesch.com and I want it to link to http://www.jacobdesch.com/Jeenyus/jeenyus.html, having it pop up in a new window that isn't resizeable.

@welshFeb 14.2006 — #u didnt place this in the header:

[code=html]
 <script type="text/javascript">
 var newwindow;
 function flashwindow(url)
 {
 newwindow=window.open(url,'name','height=680,width=775,status=yes,left=75,top=100');
 if (window.focus) {newwindow.focus()}
 }
 </script>
 [/code]

so your header should look like

[code=html]
 <head>
 <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" />
 <title>Jacob Desch - Graphic Designer - Coming Soon.</title>
 <style type="text/css">
 <!--
 body,td,th {
 color: #FFFFFF;
 }
 body {
 background-color: #000000;
 }
 .style1 {font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif}
 -->
 </style>
 <script type="text/javascript">
 var newwindow;
 function flashwindow(url)
 {
 newwindow=window.open(url,'name','height=680,width=775,status=yes,left=75,top=100');
 if (window.focus) {newwindow.focus()}
 }
 </script>
 </head>
 [/code]
