open new window maximised

[cleary1981]

I would have thought this would have been a relatively simple task but from searching the web I can't find any simple answer. Can anyone advise?

 

just to clarify i have the follwing line

 

<input type="button" value="Design Mode" onClick = "window.open('designmode.php', '', 'chrome=yes, resizable=yes')">

 

I want this new window to appear so the user does not have to make any adjustments

thye only way you can do that is to stipulate the height and width of the window, work out the minimum size the window has to be ot show all the information then use those sizes when you create the window

onClick = "window.open('designmode.php', '', 'chrome=yes, resizable=yes,width=350,height=250')

i will still have the problem that the new window shows from the middle of the screen and half is out of view. would probably need to set position to 0,0 aswell

I used this in one of my sites and the pop up window opened in the middle of the page

 

function PopupMe(num){
myleft=(screen.width)?(screen.width-800)/2:100;
mytop=(screen.height)?(screen.height-600)/2:100;
settings='top=' + mytop + ',left=' + myleft + ',width=500,height=400,location=no,directories=no,menubar=no,toolbar=no,status=no,scrollbars=yes,resizable=no,fullscreen=no, titlebar=no'
var address = "designmode.php"; //put this in for you
popupwin=window.open(address,'', settings);
popupwin.focus();
}

 

then call the function onClick
