Hello prochartscanbob-ga
Thank-you for your question.
The problem lies in the javascript function you are using to open up
the window. Ideally each of the window attributes should be enclosed
in "" characters.
The new code for the javascript function in your index_pop_up_new.php
page should be:
<script language="JavaScript">
function popUp(URL) {
day = new Date();
id = day.getTime();
ScreenX = '400';
ScreenY = '100';
window.open (URL, id,
'titlebar=0,toolbar=0,scrollbars=0,location=0,status=0,menubar=0,resizable=1,width="470",height="103",left='
+ ScreenX + ',top=' + ScreenY);
}
</script>
In the above example only the width and height attributes have been
enclosed in "". By doing this the window opens at a sensible size and
can be resized keeping the table headings visible. When resizing the
window the page is only completely refreshed when you let go of the
mouse button.
Let me know if you require any further information on this subject by
asking for clarification. |

How did it not work? The code seems to work here...
Have you considered using an iframe to hold the data on the
display_alerts_frames.php page?

I have just triple checked here and I cannot duplicate any errors.
There does appear to be some sort of error on the page that pulls the
numbers out of your database as IE sometimes says there is a
javascript error but this does not appear to be a problem with the
original window size question.
Additionally the prevent right-click code you have used to stop people
right-clicking on the page also does not work totally in Firefox. I
get an error message saying "This function is disabled" but only if I
click on the frame containing the table title. It also does not
prevent me from using my right-click menu.
The only thing I would change in my solution is perhaps removing the
"" marks from around the width attribute as this makes the window in
Firefox too big.

thanks for info palitoy but it's not opening correctly on any browser i can access.
and i think i've lost my coder now.
do you realize that popup is suppossed to open (only know inches) 5
1/4" wide and 1 1/2" tall that's with 1024x768 resolution...we had it
opening perfectly sized in IE before the code change...In FF it would
open with bottom of the image floating and the bottom of table
floating up like a wondow shade that wouldn't stay down..
i wish google let people correspond directly..i need help here...thanks

Unfortunately we are not allowed direct contact with customers,
sometimes this can make things a little difficult but most things can
be sorted out by these responses.
From your question, it wasn't clear that the window had to open a
specific size as you mentioned resizing the window. My solution
ensures that the Firefox and IE windows open so that you can see the
detail of the page rather than it being obscured.
I believe the problem lies with the attributes of the window.open
command. Some of these are IE or Mozilla/Firefox only. It may be
that a different window.open command needs to be used for each browser
type. There is an excellent page on this here:

Unfortunately I do not have much more time available to work on this
and this could be a lot more work depending on how much more
troubleshooting is involved.

I don't see how that answer petains here pal...i showed you a link and
asked you compare IE to FF...you are the one that didn't catch that it
was a finishes size on IE...I have over 200K in this project and have
never squacked about any charges from anyone...It was question of the
different code need to satify FF as compared to IE..No need to get
cute because your answer didn't work..read my question over and tell
me where I went wrong presenting it..It won't do any good to look at
the difference now...My coder set the code that you furnished and has
left me with bigger problem..Insulted that I would seek advise
elsewhere...I'll learn how to talk to you guys someday...Thank You...

In your previous clarifcation you stated that you were going to "put
it out to a freelancer", I was only trying to be helpful by giving you
some options as to where to locate a freelance coder.
Once again, I can only apologise.
