I am opening a page, appfile.aspx, with this:
Dim script As String

script =
"<script>window.open('appfile.aspx','NewPage','top=0,left=0');</script>"

Page.RegisterClientScriptBlock("MyScript", script)

I am resizing appfile.aspx with this:

<script type="text/javascript">
self.resizeTo(632,500);
window.focus();
window.name = 'newWin';
</script>

This works pretty nicely, but currently the browser opens at a much larger
size, and then is resized to 632x500. Does anyone know how to open the
browser with the correct dimensions?

Thanks
Aaron

Hi Aaron,

In your window.open() try this:

window.open('appfile.aspx','NewPage','width=632,height=500,top=0,left=0');

Then you can remove the self.resizeTo() call. Good luck! Ken.

Thank you. That's exactly what I needed.

You are resizing after the page opens. If you want it sized to begin with,
you need to launch it from another page.
