how to center and resize a window when it loads

mike2003 · Mar 19, 2003

Hello all

I am trying to automaticaly resize my window and center it in the screen when it loads.
I know it can be done using window.open(), but i am not using that to open the window. I am trying to see how I can do it using the <body onload>

Thanks
Hope to hear from all of you soon
