As one who loathes popups--even well intentioned ones--I'd like to discourage you from this course of action.

Besides, several (non-IE) browsers, notably Firefox allow users to enable javascript but disable window resizing. These settings will, in effect, prevent a "cross-browser" solution.

I'd suggest a Google search:
http://www.google.com/search?q=javascript%20resize%20window

Specifically, here:
http://www.quirksmode.org/js/winprop.html

If your pop-up is opened via window.open(), the call returns a reference to your new window. Your final code will likely look something like this:

var popup = window.open(url, newWinName, "toolbar=0,menubar=0,location=0,status=1,scrollbars=1,width=100,height=1 00");
popup.resizeTo(x, y);
window.resizeTo(x2, y2);
popup.moveTo(x3, y3);
window.moveTo(x4, y4);

Hi,

Does anybody have a little cross-browser piece of code
to resize a popup ?

Excatly, I don't know if it is possible ?, I would like to open
a popup on the side of an existing window like if it would be a tabpane.

So reducing window width by the width of the popup, set the popup on
the side of the window. And the best of the best: when the window is
resize, resizing the popup also ... :-)

I've done (prototype way) something  that resize window, and set the
popup, but I fall in browser toolbar mess. I don't think if it is
possible to do something crossbrowser and clean ?


Thanks,
Best Regards,
Jean-Philippe
