How can I control the position where I open a new browser?

P

Peter Everaert

I can open a new browser and set the size of the new browser. However I can
not find where I can control the position. I would like to open a new browser
without any toolbars which covers the whole screen. I sized the browser 1024
by 740 so the bottom task bar stays vissible. However I can not get the left
hand corner to automatically take position 0,0. Is there a way to control
this?

Would this work

<SCRIPT type="text/javascript">
window.open(" url ","...name...","toolbar=no, location=no,
directories=no, status=no, menubar=no, scrollbars=no,
resizable=no,width=1024, height=740")
window.moveTo(0,0);
</SCRIPT>

or use JIMCO's Spawn and set the top left to 0,0

That type of scripting is dangerous (width=1024, height=740)
If the users screen resolution is less than 1024 you have created a window part of which is not viewable or scrollable

| Actually I found that you can specify position in the window.open as top=0,
| left=0
|
| e.g.
| window.open(" url ","...name...","toolbar=no, location=no,
| directories=no, status=no, menubar=no, scrollbars=no,
| resizable=no,width=1024, height=740,top=0,left=0")

try the addin "Spawn" from www.jimcoaddins.com - it does all the work of
creating the code for a popup window including x and y coordinates for
positioning the window (or centring it on the screen).
