change properties of open window

[keenanbr]

Is it possible to add scrollbars to an open window. I have a web application which opens up Outlook Calander entries. I need to add scrollbars to the form because on some screens where the resolution is 800X600 the full form is not shown. I must admit I don't know the app very well but the first thing it does is resize and reposition the form thus;


<script language=javascript>
window.moveTo(120,10);
window.resizeTo(screen.width-240,screen.height-40);
</script>


Is it possible to add scrollbars at this stage (this code is in a .asp).

Thanks in advance,

When you are opening the window, I believe you can specify at that point if scrollbars appear... so look for where your "window.open" command is being run.

The 3rd parameter [to window.open] is the one you're after... you can either specify "scrollbars=yes" or "scrollbars=no".

Hope this helps,

Yes, I realize that but I don't know from wher the window is opened.

If it's your own web application, why not look through the source?

It's call from Outlook OWA. I don't know from where.

The solution was very simple. OWA uses a stylesheet (OWAstyle20.css). It was simply a matter of editing

.noteBody, .previewBody
{
BACKGROUND-COLOR:buttonface;
MARGIN:0;
OVERFLOW:hidden;
PADDING:0px 0px 0px 5px;
}

and changing to

OVERFLOW:scroll;
