Write out a href with javascript when a page loads - is it possible?

[Transcend]

Hi guys -

the problem I have is this, when a certain page in my asp .net application loads, different things need to happen depending on who is logged in, what they are looking at etc etc.

In some instances on the page I write out a html table on the fly which works fine. Two of the columns need to contain a href which opens up another window. I can get the href to display and to open the other window fine. However I would like to be able to set the size, titlebar visible etc on this new page. Is it at all possible to do this? Is it possible using response.write to write out a href or some sort of javascript to enable this?

Please help!!

This is more a Javascript question but yes you can. As you are already writing the anchor to the page then all you need to do is add an onclick attribute to the <a> tag which opens hte new window using Javascript.

The tag will look somethign like this.

<a href=&quot;#&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open(&quot;page.htm&quot;, &quot;windowName&quot;, &quot;width=400,height=200&quot;); return false;&quot;>my link</a>#

There are plenty of attributes of window.open method check out

In the off chance that you're adding the link in the code behind as either and html link control or an asp.net link button control, you can also add the onClick event from the codebehind.

linkButton.Attributes.Add(&quot;OnClick&quot;, &quot;window.open(...);&quot
