Screen Position with a new Window using percentages
Poster: MikieMouse
Dated: Sunday June 15 2003 - 18:02:26 BST
I am able to use the screen position options without issue, though I can only get them to work with an exact value. For those that view the site on different display ranges, I was wondering if it is possible to set it to go down and right a certain percentage (to keep continuity). This is how I'm using the code:
Code:
,"Main Book","javascript:openNewWindow(\"www.site.com\",650,300,\"top=10,left=10,scrollbars=yes\")",,"Description",0
Any help would be great. Thanx :mrgreen:

Dear Mr. Mouse,
There are no native javascript positioning functions that use percentages. You'd have to alter your openNewWindow() function to get the user's current screen size, then calculate the absolute pixel positions for top and left based on the percentages you are interested in. You'll have to be more than passingly conversant with javascript to do this. You might also find some premade scripts that use percentages on some of the various javascript sites out there.
Hope that helps,
Kevin
