Re: Net.data macro launching a new window -- WEB400

Don,

The "fullscreen" option is available in IE on the window.open function.
It will literally give you a full screen with no visible elements apart form any of your own html.
But you must code a link or button to close it otherwise the operator has to know to press Alt-F4.

The macro below will do this if you use the fullwin() function as the onload function.

However, I have coded the popup() function which I suspect is what you want.
The macro will display Don's Page and automatically launch a popup window for macro "mywindow" at the position and size you desire, just fiddle with the variables for t and w (top and height)

%html(macro) {
<script>
function popup() {
t = 130;
h = screen.height-(t+90)
w = 800
settings = 'toolbar=no'
+ ',location=no'
+ ',directories=no'
+ ',status=no'
+ ',scrollbars=yes'
+ ',resizable=yes'
+ ',copyhistory=no'
+ ',width='+w
+ ',menubar=no'
+ ',top='+t
+ ',left='+ (screen.width-w)/2
+ ',height='+h;
url = "mywindow"
popwin = window.open(url,'PopupWin',settings);
}

function fullwin(){
window.open("mywindow","big","fullscreen,scrollbars")
}

</script>
<body onload="popup()">
Don's page
</body>
%}

%html(mywindow) {
Don's window
%}

Cheers,
dtwdude

Subject: [WEB400] Net.data macro launching a new window

I have a short macro which currently just launches a url in a full browser .

I would like to insert code (JavaScript?) into that macro which would execute the url application in another window DEVOID of all toolbars, back buttons and refresh buttons.

Does anyone have a simple example of that?

TIA,
Don C.
