Somehow, the default window size for Firefox has been changed. Now, whenever I open something that isn’t full screen by default, the window is about half the size it should be. Normally this is a minor annoyance, and I can just resize the window how I’d like it, but a few times tonight I’ve gone to sites that open up windows with fixed sizes, and I can’t resize them. Does anybody know how to get it back so I can see my content?
Are these sites you have vistited before that have allowed you to resize contents in new windows in the past?
If not then you’re probably just seeing a non-resizeable window. At one of its parameters, the HTML “a href” (begin href, or link) function has a sub-function “target” which allows specifying where the content of the link will appear (top level, a specified frame, new window, itself, etc.) The “target” sub-function also allows one further specify the properties of a new window (if the “_new” parameter is used) – its width, height, whether or not it can be resized, whether or not it will have one or both scrollbars, etc.
If you get something like the Tab Mix Plus extension for Firefox, it can force all windows to open as regular-sized tabs. Everything will be the size of your browser window then.
