Target a new window

Don
I want to have a link open a new window, using the "_blank" tag or
similar. However, I want to control it so that the new window is a
full screen, not a tiny window, dependent on the machine viewing it.

Anyone know how to do this?

Thanks.

You cannot control anything with HTML, which is a markup (not
programming) language. You'll need to use javascript. Try asking in a
javascript group.

I might add that what you want to do is a terrible idea, but then, if
history is any indication, you'll get annoyed, hurl some insults at me,
and a flame war will erupt. So I'll refrain, and merely suggest
comp.lang.javascript

Good luck.
