window.open and margins
Hi everybody,
Does anyone know if it's possible to define margins in a window.open function?
I've tried this already, but it does not work:
Win = open('cocktail.htm', '','width=400,height=397,marginwidth=0,marginheigth=0,toolbar=no,scrollbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,resizable=no,status=yes');
I know I can set the margins in the cocktail.htm-file but that's not what I want as the url in the window.open-function is going to be a variable.
Thanx in advanx,
Shakespeare: onclick || !(onclick)

The window.open controls the browser window, not the contents other than putting a specific document *in* that window.
Your best bet is that if you need to have a variable going into the window is to write the "page" into the variable, with JavaScript.
So, document.write ('HI!'); et cetera.
hth,
Suzanne

Hi.
After you open the window, try something like this:
//open window named mywin
mywin = window.open(blahblah)...
//set mywin's body margin css property to 0
mywin.document.body.style.margin=0;
This worked for me in IE. For netscape you might have to do this:
mywin.document.body.margin = 0;
But I don't know if Netscape can handle it.
