how would you use vbscript to resize your window?

I'm not sure if this just works in IE, but this will resize a browser window:

Code:

<html>
<header>

</header>

<body onload="resizeTo(250,300)">
This is the contents
</body>
</html>

thanks. do you also know how to get rid of the address bar and links on the browser so that only the X in the top right corner is avaiable?

I know how to do this when you use JavaScript to open a new window.

Let's say you have a link on your site "Click Me." The HTML looks like:

Code:

<a href="#" onClick="window.open('htmlpagetoopen.html', 'nameofwindow', 'height=200,width=200,toolbars=no,location=no,menubar=no');">Click Me</a>

When the user clicks on the link, a new window will appear 200 pixels high, 200 pixels wide, and will not contain any of the browser menus.

You cannot do this to a parent browser window, without having a signed script. However, if you open a window, in IE you can use a setting called fullscreen found in the window.open method.

Here is the documentation on it:

Now should you want to sign a script, go to verisign for info. This is the company that Microsoft recommends.

Hope this helps.
