John:

myWnd was the name of the window.

This might work better for you:

if (parseInt(navigator.appVersion)>3)
	{
	if (navigator.appName=="Netscape")
		{
		winW = window.innerWidth;
		winH = window.innerHeight;
		}
	if (navigator.appName.indexOf("Microsoft")!=-1)
		{
		winW = document.body.offsetWidth;
		winH = document.body.offsetHeight;
		}
}

You can see a working example at:

http://xn--ovg.com/ajax_page1/

The last two numbers after "start" are the window coordinates regardless of who opens it.
