Hello. I'm quite a bit of a novice, but I hope someone can help. I've started to set up a website, which can be found at http://www.thebombclubnight.co.uk.

Can anyone help me with a script that will open and fix the window to a specific size so the user can't resize it? At the minute, when the page opens you can see the main content surround by an empty white area - and I don't want any white to be displayed.

Thanks

John

Hello John,
Welcome to SillyDog701.

Can anyone help me with a script that will open and fix the window to a specific size so the user can't resize it?

To open a new window with fixed size, you will need to use JavaScript for this.
Syntax:
[tt]open("URL", "windowName", "width=XXX,height=XXX,resizable=no")[/tt]

Say you want to open this page, index2.html, to be 400 wide and 300 height and non-resizable, simple add a link similar to following to your main page:

Code: Select all

<a href="#" onclick="window.open('index2.html', 'mywindow', 'width=400,height=300,resizable=no');">click here</a>

Hope this helps.

Thanks Anthony,

is there any way to do the same thing to the original index page?

You can resize the window (use JavaScript), but it's very annoying in my opinion.

Feel free to take a look at my testing site and if there's anything I can help you out with please feel free to come back to me on it.

There's lots of great stuff on the web viv-a-vis JavaScript Tutorials and in my view is a lot more reliab;e for some things like slideshows than Flash. Granted a little fiddlier to account for slide transition given donload times.....


Cheers
