Hello to everyone&#8230; What a great site!
I have a very basic question to ask (I think basic). When using the target="_blank&#8221; tag to launch a new window, is there any way to set a size constraint on the new window that opens? I would like my window to open around 575 pixels (w)/ 200pixels(h) instead of a full page. Is there any way to set this fixed width?
Thanks in advance for any help.

instead of target _blank, give this a whirl

<a href="http://ozoneasylum.com" onclick="window.open(this.href, 'popupwindow', 'width=500,height=500,scrollbars,resizable'); return false;">popup</a>

Hello, I am new here, and well I first want to thank the person that put up the window.open info. I am trying to use it in conjunction with my images page in my site. The problem I am running into is that, I click on a thumbnail, and the image opens beautifully. If, however, I do not close my Popup the next pic populates in the same window. The problem more specifically is that the sizes of my images range from a horizontal to a vertical view, so I am getting distorted images.

Please Help.

Thank you.

not sure why the next image is being populated if not closed. Maybe a peek at the code will help that. As for the other problem, use the following code from our very own Bugimus :

Here's an idea: just link _without_ a target to a page with your content positioned however you like (_without_ pixel-based dimensions).

you'll need to replace 'popupwindow' with '_blank' - which means 'a new window every time' for the behaviour you want.

otherwise: welcome to the asylum. Please make sure to read the ->faq and ->aboutUBB to learn how to make the most of this place.

The target="_blank" is what I think you mean, and yes I could do that, I was just shooting for a something flashy in that each pic has a window that fits the image to the T. Instead of a big blank window with the image shoved up to the top left.

I will put up a link soon when I have more of what I am looking to do.

Thank you for the info..

And to the gent that put up all that code, WOW that's awesome.. I will have to take a closer look at that and decode it I think I get the just of it. You
are defining window open as w, then specifying what w does when opened, how it acts, and looks. Very nice. I will let you know what i find out. thx.

Java is still very new to me.

Thank You!!

Does it come in an IV?

It's actually JavaScript and that's what the code I posted does. Fits the image to the window to a T.

gives you room for a title and Bug's copyright too.

If I remember well - it's been a long, long time I've not used frames -, you should to use the atttribute scrolling="yes" (or auto) in your frameset.

However, frames really are an outdated way to design html pages and quite frankly you should not use them anymore. Try using CSS instead

conqueror: Hello and welcome to the Asylum,

Bringing the scrollbar of the left frame to the right hand side is really easy. Merge the two damn frames.

Sorry. I can only second Moon Shadow. By using frames you created yourself a problem you wouldn't have had you used the right tools to design your site. Frames are a biiiiiiiig NO-NO. No for accessibility, usability, SEO, ... If you don't buy that, try to browse your site on a mobile phone or in a text browser, bookmark or even print a page.
