Window Open a window To open a window, simply use the method "window.open()":
<form>
<input type="button" value="Click here to see"
onclick="window.open('test.htm')">
</form>
You can replace "test.htm" with any URL, for example, with "http://www.yahoo.com".
Size, toolbar, menubar, scrollbars, location, status Let's
add some of attributes to the above script to control the size of
the window, and show: toolbar, scrollbars etc. The syntax to add
attributes is:
open("URL","name","attributes")
For example:
<form>
<input type="button" value="Click here to see"
onclick="window.open('p2.htm','w1','width=200,height=200,menubar')">
</form>
Another example with no attributes turned on, except the size changed:
<form>
<input type="button" value="Click here to see"
onclick="window.open('p2.htm','w1','width=200,height=200')">
</form>
Here are the complete list of attributes you can add:
width |
height |
toolbar |
location |
directories |
status |
scrollbars |
resizable |
menubar |
Reload To reload a window, use this method:
window.location.reload()
Close Window Your can use one of the below codes:
<form>
<input type="button" value="Close Window"
onClick="window.close()">
</form>
<a href="javascript:window.close()">Close Window</a>
LoadingThe basic syntax when loading new content into a
window is:
window.location="test.htm"
This is the same as
<a href="test.htm>Try this </a>
Let's provide an example, where a confirm box will allow users
to choose between going to two places:
<script>
<!--
function ss()
{
var ok=confirm('Click "OK" to itechcollege,
"CANCEL" to onlineschoolnet');
if (ok)
location="http://www.itechcollege.com";
else
location="http://www.onlineschoolnet.com";
}
//-->
</script>
Remote Contral Window Let's say you have opened a new window
from the current window. After that, you will wonder how to make
a control between the two windows. To do this, we need to first
give a name to the window.Look at below:
aa=window.open('test.htm','','width=200,height=200')
By giving this window a name "aa", it will give you access to anything
that's inside this window from other windows. Whenever we want to
access anything that's inside this newly opened window, for example,
to write to this window, we would do this: aa.document.write("This
is a test.").
Now, let's see an example of how to change the background color
of another window:
<html><head><title></title></head>
<body>
<form>
<input type="button" value="Open another page"
onClick="aa=window.open('test.htm','','width=200,height=200')">
<input type="radio" name="x"
onClick="aa.document.bgColor='red'">
<input type="radio" name="x"
onClick="aa.document.bgColor='green'">
<input type="radio" name="x"
onClick="aa.document.bgColor='yellow'">
</form>
</body></html>
opener Using "opener" property, we can access the main window
from the newly opened window.
Let's create Main page:
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<form>
<input type="button" value="Open another page"
onClick="aa=window.open('t1.htm','','width=100,height=200')">
</form>
</body>
</html>
Then create Remote control page (in this example, that is "t1.htm"):
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
<script>
function remote(url){
window.opener.location=url
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<p><a href="#" onClick="remote('file1.htm')">File
1</a></p>
<p><a href="#" onClick="remote('file2.htm')">File
2</a></p>
</body>
</html>
Try it now!
