    Question Can I open windows of different sizes with one script?

    Hallo

    Utter Java newbie here, so this may be a silly question, I don't know.

    I have the following script, which opens a new window of a certain size. Is it possible to put variables in for height and width, so I can open windows of several different sizes with the same script? In which case, how? (And how do I call it?)

    Thanks

    -----

    <script language='javascript'>
    //-- This function opens the new, empty window named floater.
    function openWindow(url) {
    winStats='toolbar=no,location=no,directories=no,menubar=no,'
    winStats+='scrollbars=yes,width=400,height=400'
    if (navigator.appName.indexOf("Microsoft")>=0) {
    winStats+=',left=10,top=10'
    }else{
    winStats+=',screenX=10,screenY=10'
    }
    floater=window.open(url,"",winStats)
    }
    //-->
    </script>

    I've got a reply from another forum, but I thought I'd post it here, in case anyone else wants to know how to do this:

    <script language='javascript' type="text/javascript">
    //-- this function opens the new, empty window named floater
    function openWindow(url,iW,iH) {
    winStats='toolbar=no,location=no,directories=no,menubar=no,'
    winStats+='scrollbars=yes,width=' + iW + ',height=' + iH
    if (navigator.appName.indexOf("Microsoft")>=0) {
    winStats+=',left=10,top=10'
    }else{
    winStats+=',screenX=10,screenY=10'
    }
    floater=window.open(url,"",winStats)
    }
    //-->
    </script>

    to call it:

    <a href="javascriptpenWindow('http://www.blahblahblah.com/html',400,400);">link</a>

    [NB. = colon, little o]
