Hi,

How can I change the height and width of a popup by clicking a button without reloading the page?

Thanks,

Neil

Thanks,

When I change the window size by clicking the button, can I also reposition the window on the screen?

Also, i'd like a close button on the page. When you click on it, it should say 'Are you sure you want to close this window? Ok/Cancel'. OK should close the window, and Cancel should keep the window open.

Thanks,

1 more thing: is is possible to change the formatting in an alert?

Thanks,

Neil

I know the window move is possible, though I forgot the exact script, if you ever are searching the web and find a popup window "shaking" around it's moving it's coordinates you can then rip off the code and you're set.

as for your closing the popup

put this code in it.

<script>
function closebutton()
{
if (confirm("Close the window?") )

{
self.close()
}
}
</script>
<body>
<input type=button value="Close this Window" onClick="closebutton()">



And that should work, if you do a little searching around you can probably find how to move the window.

Thanks, that works. Do you know about the formatting the alert? (I know you can do it with VB script, but as that only is supported by IE that wouldn't be any use).

Thanks,

myWin.resizeTo(a, b);

myWin.moveTo(x, y);

Thanks, but I can't get it to work. Can you show me how to resize the current window when you load a page?

Here it is:


<html>

<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="en-gb">
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">
<meta name="GENERATOR" content="Microsoft FrontPage 4.0">
<meta name="ProgId" content="FrontPage.Editor.Document">
<title>Resize</title>
</head>

<body onload='myWin.resizeTo(640, 450), myWin.moveTo(0, 0),' bgcolor="#C0C0C0">

<p>Resize</p>

</body>

</html>



Thanks,

You need to do it like this-

function A(){

var w = window.open(" etc.................

resetWin();

}

function resetWin(){

if(w && w.open){

w.resizeTo........
w.moveTo........

return;

}else{

resetWin();

}
}

If you want to resize it with a link put the resetWin function in the popup you want to resize and use-

<a href ="#" onclick = "return resetWin()">resize</a>

Sorry, i can't see how to put this into my code. Please could you write the code for a page in a popup, which when you open it it resizes to 640x480 and moves to 0,0?

Thanks,

Yes, can you post the entire javascript + html in the popup?

Thanks alot. It works perfectly now. Do you know if it's possible to format an alert with JavaScript?

Thanks again,

You're welcome.

I believe only very basic html can be used with alerts like <b></b> etc.

You can't use any html with alerts... ie. alert ("<b>this is a test</b>"); will alert <b>this is a test</b> rather than this is a test

If you want a new line, you can use \n, but you are fairly limited other than that...
