"open browser window" size
I am updating a site that uses pop-ups for definitions throughout the site.
This is a medical site, so the pop-up definitions are essential. The site was built before pop-up blockers came onto the scene. I have tried replacing the script with the "open browser window" action under the tag inspector but cannot seem to get that to work. I do rely on DW for Java script as it is not my strong suit. I cannot find a way to have small windows open with DW - and avoid pop-up blockers. Does anyone have a solution? Thank you! |

Use layers instead.
Google for "overlib" and try that method. Alternatively, how many words on average are in your definitions? If no more than 150 characters, you can just use the title attribute - <span title="this will do for short content">word-to-be-defined</span> -- Murray --- ICQ 71997575 Adobe Community Expert (If you *MUST* email me, don't LAUGH when you do so!) ================== http://www.dreamweavermx-templates.com - Template Triage! http://www.projectseven.com/go - DW FAQs, Tutorials & Resources http://www.dwfaq.com - DW FAQs, Tutorials & Resources http://www.macromedia.com/support/search/ - Macromedia (MM) Technotes ================== |

Thanks, but it's actually long content. Sometimes up to 3 paragraphs. The
customer doesn't want to re-work the whole site to have this information load onto "regular" web pages. But, the javaScript is so old that the pop-up blocker doesn't even sound - only a new page saying "page cannot be found". I though that the behaviour panel would help to update the script - adding "open browser window" but it doesn't show up as a link when I use this method - and these need to be clearly defined as links. I will search for some updated Java - but I had hoped that DW studio 8 would have this a solution. I do love the 'overlib' though - thanks for the tip! |

Okay - simple, now that I've figured it out...always.
I do wish they had put this bit into "help" under browser window behavious - I added a # into the link box and now it looks like a link on the page. Still gets blocked, but at leaset there is a notice as to what has happened. If anyone does know of a new method of opening smaller secondary windows without activating a pop-up blocker I would love to know the code. Thanks so much! |

Then this is not the pop-up blocker at work. This means that your path to
the file is wrong. Then you won't find it - it's javascript not Java. -- Murray --- ICQ 71997575 Adobe Community Expert (If you *MUST* email me, don't LAUGH when you do so!) ================== http://www.dreamweavermx-templates.com - Template Triage! http://www.projectseven.com/go - DW FAQs, Tutorials & Resources http://www.dwfaq.com - DW FAQs, Tutorials & Resources http://www.macromedia.com/support/search/ - Macromedia (MM) Technotes ================== |

It's not being blocked. These are not the kinds of pop-ups that are blocked
normally. -- Murray --- ICQ 71997575 Adobe Community Expert (If you *MUST* email me, don't LAUGH when you do so!) ================== http://www.dreamweavermx-templates.com - Template Triage! http://www.projectseven.com/go - DW FAQs, Tutorials & Resources http://www.dwfaq.com - DW FAQs, Tutorials & Resources http://www.macromedia.com/support/search/ - Macromedia (MM) Technotes ================== |
