[Javascript] opening window

[Andrew Dunn]

Hi,
    I have seen it done before, so i believe it is possible.

Ben,
As ever, I look forward to being proved wrong in this list, as has happened
before and will happen again. That is much of what makes the list
worthwhile, in my opinion.

In the Wrox "Professional Javascript" book there is a note in Ch5  'Windows
and Frames' on page 163

"The title bar and its close and resize icons are added by the computer's
operating system, not the browser, and aren't visible inside JavaScript.
You're stuck with them, unless you create an ActiveX control that
specifically removes them"

IE specific scripting can sometimes involve use of ActiveX objects (e.g.
FileSystemObject). Similarly, JAVA applets can also be addressed from
javascripts. Neither are 'part of javascript' - but the distinction becomes
'academic' if it works and does not cause trouble.

Certainly if you have a way to do it I want to see it asap. It would be
neat!

  err, it is actually.  I think in IE you can do something funky with
opening
  a new window, setting it to be full-screen, and setting the height & width
  at the same time.
  if I have time I'll try and knock up a demo but I'm really busy right now.
