Hi
I have the following in my project Start Page:

<body onload="window.open
('Login.aspx', '', 'scrollbars=no'); return false;">

but the window opens with scrollbars regardless of wether all the content is visible or not.
What determines if the scrollbar is visible or not

Thanks for any help

Perhaps you have some content in your page that is making them appear? It's hard to say without seeing Login.aspx, and also hard to know given that you've specified no dimensions for your open window, so we don't know what size it is opening to.

Hi, I'm using Explorer 6

the full line is:

<body onload=
"window.open('Login.aspx', '', 'fullscreen=yes, menubar=no, toolbar=no, scrollbars=no'); return false;">

All the attributes apart from scrollbars are in effect as specified.

There are no further refrences to scrollbars in the project

Make sure there are no spaces after the commas in your options string. And try removing the "scrollbars=no" completely. AFAIK, if you specify any option in the options string then everything is turned off unless you specifically turn it back on. And just having the word "scrollbars" in the option string might be enough for IE 6 (buggy as it is) to think that you really want scrollbars.

Good luck.

For best results: hand wash in cold, tumble dry low.
For not so good results: drag through puddles, pound on rocks, air dry on tree branch.

Maybe I'll just repeat myself:

Self said:

Click to expand...

Unless you do specify dimensions, the window that opens will be a different size for every user. Perhaps you should specify one?
