Opening a new window question 1

iSeriesCodePoet · Dec 21, 2001

I have seen sites on the internet that open pop-up windows for advertisements and stuff like that. Many times they remove the navigation, address, and menu bars. I was wondering how to do this. (No this isn't for advertisements) We have a useful reason for this on our intranet.

Is this a IE thing only? Or can this be done with other browsers?

Any help would be apreciated. Mike Wills

This can be done using JavaScript, here's a sample HTML page you can test, using IE, Navigator, or any browser that supports JavaScript:

<html>
<head>
<script language="JavaScript">
function openPopup()
{
window.open("blank.html", "newWindow", "location=no,menubar=no&quot

;
}
</script>
</head>
<body onLoad="JavaScript

penPopup();">
This space for rent.
</body>
</html>

The first argument to the open() function is the URL of the page you want to display in the popup window, the second argument is the name of the popup window and the third argument is a comma-separated list of 'features' that define the characteristics of the popup window.
