window.open() IE7 and zoom levels

[giles100]

Hi All,

I’m getting reports from some of my visitors that window.open() in IE7 is opening a new window with a zoom level around 125% (I’ve tested heavily with my version of IE7 and I’m not having the same problem). I’m having trouble finding any text on features that allow me to set zoom level to 100% - can you help?

Many thanks
Giles

hmm, sounds like it could be settings-related. ask them to go to Tools > Internet Options > Advanced and ensure that the "Reset Zoom level to 100% for new windows and tabs" checkbox is checked, under Accessibility.

It could very well be possible that they are viewing a different page at 125% zoom before going to your new window.

Hi, your response makes it sound like there is no means to do this in JS?

i have not seen anything discussing this ability, so no.
