Someone stole my scrollbar(resolved)

Whats up guys n gals

OK, I have an html page (support.htm) that I need to pop up in a seperate browser without toolbars, menus ect...

I have that working using the following script and with
<body onload="resizeTo(400,500)"> in the body tag on support.htm

<script LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
{
window.open('support.htm','',directories='no',menubar='no',scrollbars='yes',
status='no',toolbar='no')
}
</script>

Problem is that there are no scrollbars in the popup window?
Any Ideas ?

Thanks all

it will only show scrollbars if the window is too samll to show all the stuff on that page.

if it is try scrollbar="1" instead scrollbars="yes"

scrollbar='1' didn't make a difference

It will scroll if I use the mouse wheel but the scrollbar will not display??

Figured it out. I don't know why I had to, but I had to set the scroll parameter to 'yes' in the body tag also. I thought this was default???

<body onload="resizeTo(400,500)" scroll='yes' >

Go Figure

Thanks

this is the popup I use. suppose you can set it so it loads onLoad.

Code:

<!--script LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
 function MsgBox() {
  Newwindow=window.open("support.htm","","scrollbars=1,rezisable=1,toolbar=0,status=0, menubar=0,location=0,directories=0,width=500,height=170");
  Newwindow.document.close();
}
</script-->

then <body onLoad="MsgBox()">

why u need pop ups.....no1 will come to your site

I agree, but some popups are necessary in some cases.

A whole bunch of sites do <a href="whatever" target="_new"> which is REALLY annoying. But some sites, like the Dell Configuration site, makes good use of popups. Take your pick.
