How can I constrain the window properties (width, height, scrollbars etc)when opening a new browser window?

I am returning the results of a db search into the new window via form submission with 'target=_blank'

Any ideas?

Thanks
 
I think the problem I am having relates to using a form to query a recordset and return the results into hte new browser. Using javascript to set properties is ok but i am using <form action=&quot;results.asp&quot; method=&quot;post&quot; name=&quot;formRequest&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;>

How can i specify window properties from this point?

I have tried combining the 2 mothods but I get two windows open and have removed the action parameter and do not pass the form value to the new window
 
have you tried this?

function createNew(){
window.open(&quot; location=yes, directories=no, status=no, menubar=yes, scrollbars=yes, resizable=no, copyhistory=yes, width=400, height=400&quot;);

return true;


}

<form action=&quot;results.asp&quot; method=&quot;post&quot; onSubmit=&quot;return createNew()&quot; name=&quot;formRequest&quot; target=&quot;myNewWindow&quot;>



just a thought
