Control New Window Properties

In order to get to the eLearning Module that has these Flash pieces in them the user must:

1. Open an IE6 window that connected to Saba (our Learning Management System that houses all of our Modules)

2. Launch the elearning Module. This opens in a new IE6 window.

3. Click on the button (with the code displayed below – Example 1) in the Flash piece.

4. The button does not open a new window. It instead uses the first IE6 window, the one that is currently connected to Saba (see Step 1), and redirects that window to the new URL.

5. The first window (see Step 1) must stay connected to Saba in order for the progress in the elearning Module to be tracked.

6. I can open a brand new window if I replace the code below (Example 1) with the second code below (Example 2), but I can not control the placement, size, toolbar, etc like I can with the first code (Example 1).

My question is, how can I modify the second code (Example 2) to control as many of the window characteristics as possible (as in the code Example 1). I understand that the first code uses JavaScript, but it is not opening a new window, it is using a window that is currently open. The second code (Example 2) uses “_blank” and opens a new window.



EXAMPLE 1

on (release) {
getURL ("javascript:NewWindow=window.open(' http://www.adobe.com','newWin','width=850,height=705,left=0,top=0,toolbar=No,location=No,scrollbars=Yes,resizable=Yes,status=No,fullscreen=No'); NewWindow.focus(); ");
}


EXAMPLE

on (release){
getURL(" http://www.adobe.com", "_blank");
}
