How tocenter a popup window

[jsnunez]

Hi all,

How can I center a popup window ?
How can check the screen resolution?

here is the asp.net vb code I am using to popup the window:
Dim popupScript As String = "<script language='javascript'>" & _
"window.open('dialogAttributes.aspx', 'Attributes', " & _
"'width=300, height=300, menubar=yes, scrollbars=yes, resizable=yes')" & _
"</script>"

If (Not Me.Page.IsStartupScriptRegistered("StartUp")) Then
Me.Page.RegisterStartupScript("Startup", popupScript)
End If


thanks
jsn

You'll have to use a javascript function to check the client's screen resolution, pass those details back to the server and then omit the relevant javascript.

I'd ask in the javascript forum for the best way to get those details and submit them.

jsn: Here is an example of opening a childwindow and centering it on the page using javascript:

function getY2(){
 var fr=frames['myIframe'].document.forms[0]; 
 var strPg; 
 var w = window.screen.availWidth;
 w = (w-210)/2;
 var h = window.screen.availheight;
 h = (h-150)/2;
 var strCondit = 'left='+ w +',top='+ h +',height=150,width=210,toolbar=no,location=no,directories=no,status=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,minimize=no,copyhistory=no';
 strPg = "qwwSetY2.aspx?Y2Max=" + fr.txtY2Max.value + "&Y2Min=" + fr.txtY2Min.value + "&Y2Int=" + fr.txtY2Int.value
 childWindow = window.open(strPg, 'newWin', strCondit)
}

this particular example extracts values from inside a form's IFRAME and sends them up to the pop-up. There is an alternative code routine for this at the Javascript forum under their FAQs.
