Re: Customising the window size

Fox, the format for window.open is

window.open(url, name, features)

So you need to change your code to

 function goWin(url)
 {
 newWin = window.open(url,'newWin',
'width=351,height=413,scrollbars=yes,menubar=yes');
 }

'menubars' or 'scrollbars' on their own don't make sense, so you're not even
getting as far as the size attributes. I think, anyway.

HTH,

Sue
