Launching A Centered Browser Window Via A Form-button?
Feb 12, 2010
I am trying to launching a centered browser window via a form-button using the following code...
<button type='button'
onClick="window.open('myURL','testwin','width=400, height=400, left=(screen.availWidth-400)/2, top=(screen.availHeight-400)/2'); return false">
Test button</button>
The new browser appears the correct height and width, but the left and top clauses are ignored.Am I being too ambitious trying to make this code in-line? Is there any other syntax I should use or should I give-up and call a function instead (I would rather not if I can avoid it)?I am using Firefox 3.0.17 (latest), but the same effect happens in IE7.

It works great, however I'll be using this code with a school's website's template. The problem is that the "overlay" div tags would be placed within the container div tags of the template,therefore confining to these dimensions. How can I modify my code to have my div tags not affected by the templates div tags... and have the overlay be center in the browser..
I am implementing a pop up window and need it to be centered. Found this code (below) seems to work good. I need to open it with an image rather than text link.
<script type="text/javascript"> <!-- function popup(url){ var width = 300; var height = 200; var left = (screen.width - width)/2; var top = (screen.height - height)/2; var params = 'width='+width+', height='+height; params + = ', top='+top+', left='+left; params + = ', directories=no'; params + = ', location=no'; params + = ', menubar=no'; params + = ', resizable=no'; params + = ', scrollbars=no'; params + = ', status=no'; params + = ', toolbar=no'; newwin=window.open(url,'windowname5', params); if (window.focus) {newwin.focus()} return false; } // --> </script> <a href="javascript: void(0)"onclick="popup('popup.html')">Centered popup window</a>
im looking for a javascript code that will open a window in 100% width, no toolbars, no menubars, no statusbar, nothing but the page conent basically but for it to all be centered on the screen vertically
What I want to do is, when someone clicks a link the image pops up on screen in its own nice window smack down in the middle of the screen over top of the website. I want it to look neat tho, best example I can find is @ curse.com. [URL]. If you click that link and scroll down to the screen shot section and click on one of the images you can see how nice and professional it looks. How can I accomplish this?
I have a site that I'm building at [URL] which use the jquery cycle plugin for a slideshow. I won't post the code here because it's all there with view source at the above address. It's a work in progress. The slideshow is full width (the images in it are actually 2000px wide but looks full width), and works fine apart from when the browser window is resized. This is most noticable when you start with a smaller browser window and then resize it to be bigger.
The slides stay the same width as when the page loaded - I need them to adapt to the new width. I need the slideshow to be centered at all widths, so I've put the images in as backgrounds to divs with center positioning on them. I've tried getting the window width on resize and then applying it to the slides using jQuery, but the original calculated size overrides it when the slide changes.
I want to trap the window.close() event when the user clicks on the close button of the browser using javascript. Can anyone shed light on this problem ?
What I'm after or trying to do is simply create a script to launch a new page after a X amount of time, like a popup. But I need the new window to have the following options like no toolbar or scroll bars etc... This is the code I've been trying to manipulate for my purpose and just can't get it right meaning it doesn't work at all in fact I haven't even been able to get the timer part worked in since I couldn't get the launch part working..... I've made a web app using asp.net & vb.net and need a launch page so I don't have any toolbars or scrollbars etc....
I am using a jQuery plugin called simpledialog. It normally launches with a button click or a link click, but I want it to launch conditionally instead. I'm doing some javascript checks and if statements and if they go thru, I want to launch the pop up, without anything being clicked or anything. Essentially as soon as the browser loads the web page. I couldn't really find any plugins that support this feature, so it there maybe a workaround?
I'm using window.showModalDialog but having an issue trying to set the parent window(main browser). I open modal window A which is then opens modal window B, top of modal window B onload I do window.opener.close()". My issue now is when i'm finished with B I set parent window(main browser) to a new url with window.opener.location. So my problem is modal window A the parent has been closed so window.opener.location will not work.
One of the features of a site I'm working on is a button similar to the Facebook "LIKE" or Twitter "Tweet" [really exciting stuff to help with, right? ]
As such I need to be able to open an iframe as a layer on the page but can't load up a framework given the weight and potential for conflicts. The goal here is to be as light as possible while also avoiding conflicts. The page is multi-part so a simple layer won't do, it has to be a full fledged iFrame with the ability to fade the underlying window and close it down while also floating over page elements, drop downs, even flash.
Colorbox-min would be an ideal solution but the dependancy kills it. I do pretty well with frameworks but on my own am a JS novice. In a world full of ready made scripts,
I am looking to have a link open a closeable window that is contained within a browser window. If you click on the "sizing charts" link on this website, this is exactly what I am looking to do:
[URL]
The window is contained within the current browser window, it can be dragged around, but not outside the parameters of the browser window.
The following will submit the form data to popup by clicking the submit button. I want it will submit the form automatically to the popup, there is no submit button in this page. Basically this page should not show up.
I am wondering how Back, Forward browser button works for iframes. Does it bring back/forward iframe or top window? I remember I had before a problem because I wanted to bring back iframe and not top window as it did. But today I tested my Facebook app and was surprised to see it works as I need which means it brings back/forward iframe window and not top. Is it possible that Facebook has some javascript code which does that or is this normall behaviour?
I used google maps to get the embed code for a google map which I am displaying on a sit I am building. The problem is that when you view it embedded on my page, the location on the map is way off to the upper left corner and barely visible in the google maps iframe. How can I get the google map to load centered on the address? To see what I mean go to [URL] and click the "show map" button for the Troy Location (the first block on the left) to reveal the map. How to get the google map to center??
I have a div popup on my test site and i'm having trouble centering it. For some reason (which probably has everything to do with the code) the pop up shows in the middle of the page, as opposed to the middle of the screen. Forcing people to scroll down to see it. You can check it out here: Test page. Is there any way I can code it to where it always shows in a visible position?
Here's my javascript code: function toggle(div_id) { var el = document.getElementById(div_id); if ( el.style.display == 'none' ) { el.style.display = 'block';} else {el.style.display = 'none';} } function blanket_size(popUpDivVar) { if (typeof window.innerWidth != 'undefined') { viewportheight = window.innerHeight; } else { viewportheight = document.documentElement.clientHeight; .....
And here's the html: Code: <div id="blanket" style="display:none;"></div> <div id="popUpDiv" style="display:none;"> <a href="#" onclick="popup('popUpDiv')">Click Me To Close</a> test </div> <a href="#" onclick="popup('popUpDiv')">Click Here To Open The Pop Up</a>
My code that centers html elements fails when the html element is large. For example, I have a list of 443 items, which I break into 3 columns within a div. Therefore there are 148 lines in the div. When I use the code below to center the div, the top part of the div is beyond the top of the window screen.
function centerPopup(){ // Get data for centering var windowWidth = document.documentElement.clientWidth; var windowHeight = document.documentElement.clientHeight; var popupHeight = $(".popupArea").height(); var popupWidth = $(".popupArea").width(); //centering $(".popupArea").css({ "position": "absolute", "top": Math.floor(windowHeight/2)-Math.floor(popupHeight/2), "left": Math.floor(windowWidth/2)-Math.floor(popupWidth/2) }); //only need force for IE6 $(".popupBackground").css({ "height": windowHeight }); }
