Opening a new full window from a pop up

LaPluma · Jun 13, 2002

Hello

I have a site which uses pop up windows. I can print the pop up window, but I wish to insert a couple of links into it which, when clicked, will open up a full window (the links lead to other full sites and are not mine).

Can I use JavaScript to do this?

Best wishes and thanks for any help.

HTML>
<HEAD>
<SCRIPT>
function fullWindow(url) {
var str = "left=0,screenX=0,top=0,screenY=0,resizable";
if (window.screen) {
var ah = screen.availHeight - 30;
var aw = screen.availWidth - 10;
str += ",height=" + ah;
str += ",innerHeight=" + ah;
str += ",width=" + aw;
str += ",innerWidth=" + aw;
}
win=window.open(url, "w", str);
}
</SCRIPT>

<A HREF=javascript:void(0); onClick=fullWindow('

Hello Neversleep

I hadn't managed to get off the Tek-Tips site and noticed that you had already replied to my question!!!!!! Thought I was seeing things!

Very many thanks for your post and your help.
I'll try it!

Hi,

I hope the following snippet will be useful for you:-

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<SCRIPT>
function fullScreen(url)
{
win=window.open(url, "w", "fullscreen=1"
}
</SCRIPT>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<A HREF=javascript:void(0); onClick=fullScreen('
http://www.yoursiteaddress.com')>Full
Screen</a>
</BODY>
</HTML>

best wishes,
mohan.
