If you want to create a pop up window when a user clicks the link here is the code!
Paste the javascript below into the <head>
tag of your page
<script language="javascript">
function PopUp(ref)
{
var strFeatures="toolbar=no,status=no,menubar=no,location=no"
strFeatures=strFeatures+",scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes,height=320,width=500"
newWin = window.open(ref,"TellObj",strFeatures);
newWin.opener = top;
}
</script>
| |
|
You can change any of the window features by altering the various paramater. Try altering the height or width, and the various scroll and status bars (yes and no being the choice in most cases here).
Now all you need to do is create the pop up page itself, and link to it.
The link is not the usual <a href="page.htm">Link Text</a>, but a call to our pop up function, passing the
page as a parameter:
<a href="javascript:PopUp('page.htm')">Link Text</a>
| |
|
As usual with javascript, don't forget the function name is case sensitive and will not work if you use the wrong case.

I have used the Pop Up Windows and works really fine.
Only I've got a question:
How to control the position of the Pop Up windows in the screen?. Is that possible?

you can control where the popup window shows up with the parameters 'left' and 'top'
for example:
<script language="javascript">
function PopUp(ref)
{
var strFeatures="toolbar=no,status=no,menubar=no,location=no"
strFeatures=strFeatures+",scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes,height=320,width=500"
// ADDED THE LINE BELOW TO ORIGINAL EXAMPLE
strFeatures=strFeatures+",left=150,top=250"
newWin = window.open(ref,"TellObj",strFeatures);
newWin.opener = top;
}
</script>
this will load the window 150 pixels from the left of the screen and 250 pixels from the top...hope it helps

Excellent article. I want to use this code to open several windows in the same page, depending upon which link the user clicks on. The parameter ref is the name of the windows, but what is the parameter TellObj?

I was also wondering what the parameter TellObj is?
I'm trying to do exactly what you're doing here, except that I am passing parameters through the querystring and it's not working.
