So your script isn't probably triggered at all. Try calling it from onload in .</p> <p>I disallow pages changing my window attributes in Mozilla, so this code will be ineffective to at least one group of users. Not to mention those who disable Javascript entirely, or browse text-only. I don't think it's a good idea to mess with the users interface like that, except in very rare circumstances. Better to leave window sizing to the user. <img src="https://www.webmaster-forums.net/misc/smileys/smile.png" title="Smiling" alt="Smiling" class="smiley-content" /> I hope you're not basing your design on presumed dimensions or anything...</p> Thu, 22 Jan 2004 15:16:24 +0000 Abhishek Reddy comment 1144819 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net
