Hi Php's
Does anyone know a way to resize the new window when using the ...
header(location: ""); function?
Thanks Virgil

Don't think you can, since that is really a client side function best handled
with Javascript.

Hi Php's
This window crap is the only basic thing you cant do with PHP and I dont want to learn all the ins and out of JS just for this one thing. I really tried not to use JS in my whole site because there seem to be so many JS error popups on the web. I want to stick to just PHP if possible. But you cant. Sorry for the vent....
This is here as a cut -n- paste for the newbees....
It allows a new smaller window so exterenal links dont take someone away from your site......
Put this conditional after the body tag...
Code: Select all
<? if ($x=="y"){?>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" TYPE="text/javascript">
<!--
window.open('http://www.whatever.com', '_blank', 'height=320,innerHeight=320,width=400,innerWidth=400,scrollbars,resizable');
} //--> </SCRIPT>
<?}?>
or....
Code: Select all
<a href='www.whatever.com' onclick="window.open('http://www.whatever.com', '_blank', 'height=320,innerHeight=320,width=400,innerWidth=400,scrollbars,resizable')"> link </a>
or...
Code: Select all
<input type="button" onclick="window.open('http://www.whatever.com', '_blank', 'height=320,innerHeight=320,width=400,innerWidth=400,scrollbars,resizable')" value="Button" name="whatever" >
Hope this helps someone
PS Maybe Jason could make a quick sticky with some cut and pastes of the stuff PHP cant do.

it's not
PHP can't do it's
no one on the remote side can
there is simply neither specification nor implementation for this in common protocols/browsers

sorry, no magic in your computer. But in fact there is a genie painting the images in your monitor. The pc is just a distraction
