inline popup

What I want is a popup like...

<a href="member.html" target="_blank">Member</a>

...But I want to be able to customize what the window looks like (width, height, scrollbars/no scrollbars, etc.). If you know how I can do this I'd appreciate the help. Mostly I just don't want pages and pages of javascript because I gonna have quite a few of these little guys.

You may want to rethink your strategy as pop-ups are becoming a thing of the past due to abuse. This is javascript so try posting a few doors up.

Hello,

Well, you'll have to use a little. w3schools (http://www.w3schools.com) has a bunch of good javascript tutorials. The one you want is here (http://www.w3schools.com/js/tryit.asp?filename=tryjs_openallwindow), the page is set up so you can play with the code and see the immediate effects. Hope this helps,

He wants inline like:

<a href="#" onclick='window.open("page.html", "", "width=500, height=400, toolbar=no, location=no, directories=no, status=no, menubar=no");'>Pop it</a>

Post in the javascript forum if you need more help

This is exactly what you're after.
It's the most user friendly way of going about it.
Users can click it, right-click (open new window) and even bookmark the link without getting a JS error.
<a href="http://www.youngpup.net/" title="YoungPup.net" onclick="window.open(this.href,
'popupwindow', 'width=800,height=600,scrollbars,
resizable,menubar=1,location=1,toolbar=1'); return false;"> YoungPup.net</a>

It comes from youngpup.net, hence the the link...
:thumbsup:

*edit: You beat me zoobie :)

Heh heh...but that throws an error and is no different than <a href="http://yahoo.com">Yahoo!</a> if the whole window is replaced.

I must have stuffed it up when I copied from the source of my site...:o

Here it is again, no errors, user friendly...:D

<a href="http://www.youngpup.net/" title="YoungPup.net" onclick="window.open(this.href, 'popupwindow', 'width=800,height=600,scrollbars,resizable,menubar=1,location=1,toolbar=1'); return false;"> YoungPup.net</a>

zoobie: try it, it's very different to a standard <a>

\/Look Down\/

Hey, thanks for the help Zoobie. That's exactly what I was looking for, a simple inline code. My approach just wasn't the right approach. Only one question, what does the # stand for when you put in in the href=? As for the use of pop ups, that's what I needed to go with the flow of my site, regardless of whether their out of style or not. I have everything loading in an <iframe>, and I wanted a specific part to open outside of the <iframe> without moving people all over away from where they're at. I'll post a link here as soon as I get it all done so you'll see why they're so important. But thanks again for the help.

sina94, the problem with the code zoobie posted is that it will cause a javascript error if the user right clicks the link and chooses "open in new window".
This may not sound like a big problem, but if you we're using a page the you knew had its content within an iframe, wouldn't you open a link in a new window so as to not lose your place? So would I, and so would any seasoned web surfer.
The second code snippet I posted will not cause any such problem.
Merely a heads up :D
