Hi,
As far as I know, normally popup windows open in the default browser.
Is there a way to make popups open in a specific browser (in my case
Internet Explorer) when the default browser is a different one?
Thanks,
Raffi

No. Executable files on the user's system can open any browser they want by
referring to the browser executable (for example McAfee Security Centre
ignores the default browser and opens Internet Explorer), but this is
inaccessible to websites (unless there's a major security hole).

If you ask yourself how you would manage that on a non-IE computer then
the answer becomes obvious in a hurry. You can't dictate to me (or
anyone else) what browser to use.

Seems I still haven't got the hang of all those window generating code
in Javascript. I've got a page with about 15 photo thumbnails. When you
click on a thumbnail a new window pops up which shows the enlarged
version of said thumbnail. This works fine on all current browsers I've
tested.
However, in case I do not close the popup but click on another thumbnail
instead, only IE replaces the enlarged pic by the new one, Firebird and
Opera...

but it's not sized properly. I've set the size, but it doesn't seem to
work. I've been on 8 different websites to find out what i'm doing wrong,
and so far it seems i'm doing it the right way. Here's my code...any
suggestions would be appreciated.

First, I'm sorry if this question has been asked
too many times. I'm new to this news group.
The question has to do with the use of popup
windows in a web page. I have heard that popup
windows should be avoided; due to use of popup
blockers and browser that do not process javascript.
Is the use of popup windows bad design?
Will it severly reduce the usage of our web page?

First, greetings to everyone :)
I'm doing a university seminar & I've encountered a problem. I have a
gallery with thumbnails linked on pictures. What I want is popup to be
opened with dimensions of linked picture after clicking on a thumbnail.
I found javascript which is compatible with IE, Firefox & Opera but I
can't get it to work.
All I get is this http://www.justfonts.com/tini/problem.html (thumbnail
dissapeared).

maximized.

In Firefox I can resize the window that is created, but in IE I can't.
Here is the code I am using:
var
generator=window.open('','name','height=500,width=675,resizeable=1,toolbar=0,menubar=0,scrollbars=1');
I also tried it with 'no' and 'yes' instead of '0' and '1'.
I see the symbol in the window that I can click and drag, but, when I
do click and drag, nothing happens.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
