Ah, the pop-up window

Ummm, everyone seems to want to say that it works

but it doesn't REALLY work!
(well not enough to have smiling clients)


ok, it opens a window - but you could probably assume that already



I'm assuming that you want it to work the way it does on PC IE ?
(even this generates an error dialog for me when I click on the 'Quitter'
button)

Firefox on the PC
The window won't cover the toolbar, and it also keeps it's status bar
visible on the lower edge, so the height is shorter
the 'Quitter' doesn't work

----------------------------------------------------
on the MAC ...

tested: Mozilla, Netscape, Firefox, Opera, Camino, Safari
(didn't use IE - it always crashes on startup on my machine)



'quitter button'
---------------
The 'Quitter' button does nothing an ALL tested browsers


window size
---------------
Mozilla, Netscape, Firefox:
All produce a window that is higher than the Available screen (hangs off the
bottom of the screen)
on firefox, the statusbar is still there too - but you can't see it, because
it's offscreen
(the menubar of a mac is always visible)


Camino, Opera, Safari:
All have the window filling the available space.


ALSO
Netscape and Opera, place a 'collapsed' location bar at the top of the
window


Content
--------------
Opera
The first time the window launched, the flash was displayed
any subsequent launch produced a white screen, with three extended/foreign
character in the top-left
rightclick/reloading the page displays the flash


In all Mac browsers the navigation items on the bottom are at least
partially hidden.
(completely hidden in a couple - visible grey line only)

Firefox on the PC also has the navigation hidden.


Position
--------------
All ok except Firefox (Mac) which wants to place the window a titlebar's
height from the top on the available space

-----------------------------------------------------------------------


What does it all mean ???
cross platform/browser scripting sucks! yeah, we knew that already :(

maybe it's something as simple as trying to
get the "available size" versus the "screen size"
and also the "inner" widow area rather than the window "dimensions"



aaaaanyway,
maybe this helps, or at least points out that it's not quite right :)



cheers,
glenn
