How to find a window sate in Java Script ? I want to know whether the window is maximized or minimized ?

I'm not sure if this can be done reliably, but you can try finding the size of the window and determine from that whether it's minimised or maximised or otherwise. This link should help.

a coder was close.
alert(screenX)
when minimized, you get -32000 in firefox.
when maximized, you get -4
when restored, you get something else (the position)

Interesting. Do you know what the values are in other browsers? Is there any sort of consistency in this inconsistency (if you know what I mean)?

i was getting tired so i only tested in firebug last night.
here is a test case for your browser.
it seems ok in IE7 and FF2 for me. -
<html><head><title>dans windowstate tester</title></head><body>
-
-
announce window state in 4 seconds <input type='button' id='' name='' onclick="doMin()" value='run' />
-
-
<script type='text/javascript'>
-
function getWindowState() {
-
var S = window.screenLeft;
-
if (typeof S === 'undefined' ) {
-
S = window.screenX;
-
}
-
S=parseInt(S);
-
if (S < -4000) {
-
return "minimized";
-
}
-
if (S > -8 && S < 1 ) {
-
return "maximized";
-
}
-
return "restored: " + S;
-
}
-
-
function doMin() {
-
document.title = "change the window state now to what you want to test"
-
setTimeout(" document.title=getWindowState(); ", 4000);
-
}
-
-
</script></body> </html>

It also works in Safari. In Opera, it works with minimized, but not maximized (gives a value of 649).

I want to be able to add a clock to the title of a VB.NET form.
Simply updating the FormClass.Text property does not quite make it, the
titile only changes once the form is minimised/maximised.
Preferrably I'd like to use a Windows API to change the text displayed in
the TASKBAR for the form window.
Is it possible to change the title used by the taskbar to something
different to the title used by the form window?

works perfectly.

Hello,
I have a timer running in my windows .net application. While users are
working with the other applications I need to bring focus to this application
when timer elapses. If the application was minimized for example, I need to
maximize it. How can I do that?
Thanks,

When an MDI child window is minimised its height attribute returns 24 (on my
system), but when it is restored it goes back to its former height (and
width).
How can I get the restore height and width while the window is minimised? I
want to save the state of my application windows, including those that are
minimised, but I need to save the restore dimensions and not the minimised
dimensions.
TIA

Hi folks,
I got a requirement in my project where in when my application is activated another window should get activated and upon it my application should be present. Both should be in restored state not maximised.
To accomplish this, in the activated event of my MainForm I first activated the other window and then activated my window.
I've implemented the following piece of code in the activated event of my MainForm:

I am just new to vb.net. I used to program in vb 6. Can you kindly
indicate how I can maximise a form window to full in runtime. I think
this is a standard thing to design controls.
If this is not available then I have to drag the corners to try and
match the size for designing and setting up the controls. Altough
ticking the option "Maximised" for the field WindowState, this doesn't
have an effect in runtime and therefore controls can't...

Hi,
This is really just a theoretical question for my own interest, and not for
any nefarious purpose... :-)
Say we have three applications running - Notepad, Wordpad and Excel - and
each window is in its "normal" state i.e. not maximised, and not minimised
to the taskbar.
We click each of the three taskbar buttons in turn and, of course, the three
