HELP! HTML coding question - GoFuckYourself.com

tranza · 09-25-2005, 04:54 PM

I've been trying to make a link open a new window with a fixed size (height and width), but it doesn't seem to be working!

Can you guys help me out? This is what I wrote:

Code:

<a target="_blank" width="400" height="200" href="guidelines.htm">

What's wrong with it?

Just in case the question was actually asked seriously...

< a onClick="window.open('http://url_2_go_to','namefornewwindow','width=200,height= 200')"> Link </a>

This is better:

<a href="#" onClick="MyWindow=window.open('XXXXXX.html','MyWin dow','toolbar=no,location=no,directories=no,status =no,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,width=30 0,height=150'); return false;"> LINK </a>

To do that, you have to do it as a javascript command. Try this:

Code:

<a href="guidelines.htm" onClick="poptastic('guidelines.htm','height=200,width=400,
  resizable=no,scrollbars=no,toolbar=no,status=no'); return false;">Guidelines</a>

Thanks everybody...

BTW: Just because I've been around a long while does that mean that I MUST know HTML or Java? I know the basic. Dreamweaver helps you know?

It's cool. That's why I came back and posted a real answer.

Know plenty of folks been in the biz a long time that wouldn't know how to open an html editor much less code by hand.

Doesn't mean we can't have fun with you about it.
