Need some JavaScript

**CryingWolf** · Dec 29, 2000, 08:21

Hey all,

Here is my problem -- I have a site that has thumbnails of 3D graphic pics that I have done. When a person clicks on one of the thumbnails it opens another copy of their browser. i.e. target="_blank"

What I would like is it to open a new browser window in fullscreen with only the scroll bar and the top status bar.

I have scoured the JavaScript sites and have found various scripts but, I just don't have time to modify or make my own.

So if one of you kind persons out there give me a hand I would be truly grateful...

Thanks

Hey CryingWolf,

You could try this:

Code:

<script>
function openThumb(pic){
newWin=window.open('','newWin2','status,scrollbars,fullscreen,top=0,left=0,screenY=0,screenX=0,width='+screen.width+',height='+screen.height);
newWin.document.open();
newWin.document.write('<html><body><div align="center" valign="center" style="text-align:center;vertical-align:middle"><center><img src="'+pic+'"></center><br><br><center><a href="javascript:self.close()"><font face="Arial">Close this window</font></a></center></div></body></html>');
newWin.document.close();
}
</script>

Then, to call it, you just go:

<a href="javascript

penThumb('somePic.gif')">

and somePic.gif would be the name of the big pic you want to open in that window.
