.NET Forum / ASP.NET / General / December 2007Popup Window Location
Hi all, How do I get a popup window to appear within the boundaries of the parent window? I am using JavaScript Window.Open and setting top=1 and left=1 but that causes it to show up in the top left corner of the screen itself. Setting the location attribute to either 1 or 0 doesn't seem to make a difference either. An example: window.open("popwin.aspx","popwin","title=hide,toolbar=0,location=0,status=0,menubar=0,scrollbars=1,resizable=1, width=550px,height=600px,top=1,left=1"); Any help would be appreciated. > How do I get a popup window to appear within the boundaries of the parent > window?

That's correct - top=1 means position the top of the new window at pixel number 1 of the screen... > Setting the location attribute to either 1 or 0 doesn't seem to make a > difference either. It wouldn't - location specifies the presence of the location bar, nothing to do with the position of the window on the screen... > Any help would be appreciated. If you want the window to open at a specific screen location, you'll need to tell JavaScript what that location is... E.g. if you want it to open in the centre of the screen, you'd need to specify the following name-value pairs: top=(screen.height-height)/2; left=(screen.width-width)/2;  SignatureMark Rae ASP.NET MVP http://www.markrae.net Thanks Mark, I thought that the Top and Left were in relation to the location of the Window.Opener itself and not the screen. I appreciate the clarification. Happy New Year... John >> How do I get a popup window to appear within the boundaries of the parent >> window?
