How prevent popup window resizing in browsers.

[Anz]

function popup_window(pageurl,width,height)
{
mywindow = window.open(pageurl,"mywindow","scrollbars=1,fulls creen =
0,resizable =no,menubar=no,width="+width+",height="+height);
mywindow.focus();
}

Here is the javascript function which i am using, but this doesn't
work in opera?, is there any other script that will work in all
browsers especially in opera ?

Do you mean that you want to know how to make a window opened with -
window.open - non-resizable in more browsers (including opera). Don't
do that, don't even try it. There are two possible scenarios for the
user: 1. you opened the window at the correct size for the user, and
so the user will never attempt to re-size it and it will not matter
whether it is re-sizable or not. Or 2. you opened the window at the
wrong size for the user and if he/she then cannot re-size it you will
have failed the user.

Opera have noticed that web developers have a strong tendency to not
think about what they are designing and so to end up failing the user,
so they have withdrawn the facility.

And so has Mozilla.org, per Firefox 3.0 (as discussed recently in
de.c.l.js). However, according to the Client-Side JavaScript 1.3 Reference,
the features string must not contain whitespace, which might be another
reason for it not working.
