Open another smaller window

[Samuel Shulman]

Hi

I would like to open another smaller window on top of the existing window,
how can I do that?

Thank you,
Samuel

All "opening of windows" when a page is loaded in the browser must be done
with client script. You can do this many ways, one of the simplest, just to
experiment with , is:

string scr= @"window.open('', tinyWindow', 'toolbar,width=150,height=100') ;
myWindow.document.write('Welcome to this new window!');
myWindow.document.bgColor='lightblue';";

Response.Write("<script>" +scr + "</script>");


Hope that helps.

NOTE: There are some syntax errors in the code I posted, but you get the
general idea. You can also use the ClientScript methods of the Page class.

You can open windows with the javascript window.open method. This includes
options for sizing the window and making various toolbars and menus
visible/invisible.

Some popup blockers may foil your plans however, so consider alternate
designs.
