Just wondering if anyone can help be determine how this window popup resizing works. go to http://www.xigla.com/absolutefm/demo.htm and click on Demo 1 : FAQ Implementation

It will open 2 windows. How do they get it to resize both windows like this? I'm sure its javascript. Can you one help provide an example?
:lovewht:

when you click, it resizes the active window and then opens a new window to the right of the screen. Both windows = 100% of screen.

Javascript thing... probably grabs your screen wdith and adjust current window and launch new one with matching size for the remainder. MS Word have been doing that kind of thing since forever.


<script type="text/javascript">
<!-- <![CDATA[
var widthFull = screen.width;
var widthNewWindow = 200;
var widthCurrentWindow = widthFull - widthCurrentWindow;

window.resizeTo( widthCurrentWindow, screen.height ); // resize current window
window.moveTo( widthNewWindow, 0); // move current window to avoid new window
// launch new window with the dimension you want.
// and include a moveTo code to move to 0, 0 (very left hand top) to avoid current window
// ]]> -->
</script>

Windows that resize themselves have to be about the most annoying things ever, or unwanted popup adverts... or both equally :D
