Hey coders,

I think I'm gonna start a mailing list just for the writing and tweaking
of pop-up windows, since I spend SO MUCH time (along with other list
members) trying to customise my new and pop-up windows in HTML.

I searched the archives for the perfect fit answer, but was unable to
find anything. Here's my query:

I've been trying to code a link that opens a new window of 351w and 413h.
 I need it to contain JUST the scrollbar and menubar, nothing else.
However, when I write it as follows (utilising Javascript):

<SCRIPT TYPE="text/javascript" LANGUAGE="javascript">
 <!--


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


 // -->
</SCRIPT>
</HEAD>

balderdash, etc etc.

<A HREF="javascript:goWin('newwindow.html');"
onmouseover="window.status='Happy Birthday '; return true"
onmouseout="window.status='And you smell like one too'; return true">

I get a totally maximised window. Can't have that! So, what am I doing
wrong and what do I need to correct my indiscreet window sizes??

Any *PLEASANT* pointers are appreciated. Keep in mind I'm the perpetual
beginner....

Thanks,
Jay
Ps, I'll be happy with a NON-Javascript code too.
