Selfsizing pop up window?

[R. Russell Kinter]

Hi,
How do you get a pop-up window to self-determine
it's own size (width & height)? I need it to work
in both I.E. and Netscape.

I have seen tutorials on sizing popups from
the script or anchor of a previous window,
but none where the pop-up has it's own script
or parameters to determine it's size.

I need to do it this way, because I am trying
to load the pop-up window from a plugin and
pre-establishing height and width parameters in the
plugin's script won't work in Netscape. It ignores
them and just produces a full window (works in I.E.
of course).

thanx
Russ Kinter

Perhaps this JavaScript will help:

function Resize(x,y) {
resizeTo(x,y);
moveTo(0,0);
}

Outstanding! Worked great.

So many Javascript methods, so little time :)

If tabbed browsing is used, that will resize the whole browser
window and all other tabs. Besides, why do you expect to be 0,0
the coordinates of the left top corner of my preferred desktop?

I have a useful button for such sites. It is located in the
top right corner of the browser window or the tab (bar). *click*
