Thanks in advanced for thinking this over...

I can not figure out how to have a window open to a certain size (width=750, height=550, resize=no, scrollbars=no, status=no, toolbars=no).

I know how to create a link that controls the size of the next window (i.e., window.open("x.html","new,"width=750,..."). But that's not what I want to do in this situation.

I want the file on my desktop to open with the following parameters:
width=750, height=550, resize=no, scrollbars=no, status=no, toolbars=no

Please email any solutions.

Thanks again,
Lenny Perez

if you are thinking about clicking on a resource on your hard disk to open it in a with certain configuration,that's not gonna happen.

However there may be a work around,the link you click on is a blank page that has the winndow.open code to open the required page with required paramters and then once that page is open close the parent page...

Thanks. I think (or I hope) I can figure our how to do that.


I really apppricate your insight. I only wished I would have tapped into your knowledge ealier. I've been trying to get this to work for about 8 months. Since I'm "self taught" when something doesn't work I think it's my fault.

Cheers!
