[thelist] How to script window porpeerties

Tue Jul 17 11:16:20 CDT 2001

OK,
Im trying to script a new window with features with multiple links to the
same page and have it focus with each new link clicked.
I understand how to open and set features (except I cant figure how to set
where on the screen the page appears - other than the standard left
side-top).

<script language="JavaScript">

<!-- hide me

function defaultWindow()

{

  default_window =

    window.open("URL","default");

}

function plainWindow()

{

  plain_window =

    window.open("URL","plain","width=50,height=50");

}

function locationWindow()

{

  location_window =

    window.open("URL","locate","location,resizable");

}

// end hide -->

</script>

</head>

<body>

<h1>Here are a bunch of different windows</h1>

<a href="#" onClick="defaultWindow();">The default window</a><br>
<a href="#" onClick="plainWindow();">A small, plain window</a><br>
<a href="#" onClick="locationWindow();">A resizable window with a location
box</a><br>

</body>

I also understand how to "focus" a window.

<script language="JavaScript">

<!-- hide me

// open some new windows

var window_1 =
window.open("one.html","window_one","height=100,width=500,status,resizable")
;

var window_2 =
window.open("two.html","window_two","height=100,width=500,status,resizable")
;

// show me -->

</script>

</head>

<body>

<a href="#" onMouseOver="window_1.focus();return true;">MouseOver to bring
Window 1 forward</a><br>

<a href="#" onMouseOver="window_2.focus();return true;">MouseOver to bring
Window 2 forward</a><br>

</body>

Unfortunately I dont understand how to incorperate the 2 (possible 3)  into
1 script.
Can anyone help?

Thanks
