V5.0 in NS7.1 No scrollbar and no resizing but works in IE

Post by Rask »

I'm having a bit of a problem with Version 5.0 Release Candidate 37 Built

in that it works great with IE 6.0.2800.1106.

I have added the target=_blank;targetfeatures=menubar=no scrollbars=yes resizable=yes,

to have the links open up in a new window and not show the menubar and well you can see by the code.

My problem is that while it works great in IE it doesn't work completly in NS 7.1

It will open the new window on activation of the link but when the new window comes up, it can't be resized and the scrollbar doesn't show. Below is the URl for the site i'm using v.5.0 on.

Help!

I just tried it in NN 7.1 and all the links I tried seem to work fine, scrollbars, window can be resized. Is there a particular link on which it's doing that?

None of the bottom 4 items (with the sub-menus) open for me. You have...

Code: Select all

...target=_blank targetfeatures=menubar=no, etc.
Should be...

Code: Select all

...target=_blank;targetfeatures=menubar=no, etc.
Note the additional ; added after 'blank'.

Thank you
:D but one more question.

I put the other ; mark there, got it to work in NS 7.1 except it now shows the menubar with the new window. I get the scroll bar now too so that is working as you stated. Am I to put the ; marks behind every target in order to get the no menubar?

Again the code I have looks like this now.

target=_blank; targetfeatures=menubar=no scrollbars=yes resizable=yes

Thanks again :roll:

the ending of each aI=text etc. will be this ;"); for example

Code: Select all

aI("text=Quotes By Topic;showmenu=Quotes By Topic;");
you note the ; after each 'section' or whatever you call it. So, there's a ; after the text part, then one after the showmenu part...if you had say status there also, it would be

Code: Select all

aI("text=Quotes By Topic;showmenu=Quotes By Topic;status=whatever you say;");
So, all the ones with the targetfeatures should be

Code: Select all

targetfeatures=menubar=no scrollbars=yes resizable=yes;");
hope that helps.

Thanks Ruth and that is the way I have everything. Still I get the menubar in both IE and NS now. Strange.

It was working fine for awhile and I hadn't done anything to it. Wondering if maybe there is a setting in NS or something that is wrong. Though I don't see how that would effect anything, being I've not changed anything in the settings.

Shakes my head and scartches.... Hummmmm

Thanks :|

I don't know. I just went and check the file and got the old one. My cache is emptied each time I shut down so the old file was not in my cache, perhaps it's in your server cache? Hasnt' been updated yet? Because the one I see still doesn't have the other ; at the end. Also, I don't know that this will matter, but I don't think there is a space between the target=_blank; and targetfeatures. Also, you might put in all the features that have to do with the bar at top, location and such. Then you are also using rc37 and it's now rc45, I don't know if there was a bug with targetfeatures that got fixed in newer releases or not. Just remember to keep the old rc separate incase there's a problem with the new one, you can go back until whatever the problem is is fixed.
