Hello.
I am having a major issue with a website I am working on that uses JavaScript to open a new window with specific height and width parameters. While it seems to work fine with Firefox, it does not work right at all with IE. Here is a link to one of the pages associated with the problem: http://www.chem.vt.edu/chem-dept/mcgrath/haeseung.htm Here is the code that I use:
| Code: |
<script language="JavaScript">
function figurewindow(txt)
{
if(txt === "fig1")
{
window.open('Images/hleefig1.gif','H. Lee Figure 1','width=460,height=225');
}
else
{
window.open('Images/hleefig2.gif','H. Lee Figure 2','width=185,height=315');
}
}
</script>
|
Here is the code for the links:
| Code: |
<a href="javascript:figurewindow('fig1')">here</a>
|
I have other examples for one image and three images, but they are all based on the same logic and coding syntax. I am sure that I am not the only one with this kind of problem, but is there a relatively simple solution to make this code compliant over all (at least most) web browers? Thanks for any help. |

Same with me, IExplorer 7.
Get rid of either empty spaces and "dot" in naming pop-ups; do:
HLeeFigure1
or:
H_Lee_Figure_2
I would call this as an improvement as well, since it calls-back pop-ups from "keeping sitting", when You click the links again, using .focus():
| Code: |
<script language="JavaScript">
function figurewindow(txt)
{
if (txt === "fig1")
{
one=window.open('http://www.chem.vt.edu/chem-dept/mcgrath/Images/hleefig1.gif', 'HLeeFigure1', 'width=460,height=225');
one.focus();
}
else
{
two=window.open('http://www.chem.vt.edu/chem-dept/mcgrath/Images/hleefig2.gif', 'H_Lee_Figure_2', 'width=185,height=315');
two.focus();
}
}
</script>

Added complete URL just for testing purposes.

If I learned anything about computer programming, it's that the little things usually cause the biggest problems. Besides HTML, I've programmed in Java and C++, but I am still a neophyte with Javascript. Thank you very much for spotting and reporting my coding error!  |
