David,


the onload resize I suggested works.  At least in IE.  Netscape probably
not, but you can there use the self.innerwidth and innerheight functions I
believe.  Here's the source code.


call test.htm::::

<.html>
<.head>
<.title>Nieuwe pagina 1<./title>
<.script LANGUAGE="Javascript">
var popup_window = null;

function popup(url) {
           var popup = open(url, "Catch", "width=550,height=60");
           popup_window = popup;
        }

<./script>
<./head>
<.body onload="popup('popunder.html')">
<.p>popup<./p>
<./body>
<./html>


call popunder.html::::


<.html>
<.head>
<.title>Nieuwe pagina 1<./title>
<./head>
<.body>
<.script language="javascript">
varwidth = 500
varheight = 60
//resize the window
self.resizeTo(varwidth,varheight);
//and even move to the screen center
self.moveTo((screen.width/2) - (varwidth/2), (screen.height/2) -
(varheight/2))
<./script>
<.p>yes baby<./p>
<./body>
<./html>


Netscape is a no-go if you try this one straight on, Mozilla is okay though.
Down to the DOM probably...

I use the following code...

window.open('popunder.html','','toolbar=0,location=0,status=0,menubar=0,scro
llbars=0,resizable=0,width=510,height=60');

Thanks for the answers :o)

I'm actually trying it under IE and not Netscape, but if it helps what =
I'm trying to do is to put a banner in a window. The banner is only 60 =
in height but I cannot get a window to perfectly fit it - it always =
seems to be at least 100 in height and therefore has a lot of dead space =
below it.=20

I've seen, I think it was Yahoo, generate a pop-up of this type and they =
managed to get the banner to snugly fit so I'm sure it's just something =
obvious I'm doing wrong. And I've tried all the parameters on the image =
- removing any space around the image - as well as the page margins on =
the BODY but that didn't help either.

Thanks,
David.
