how to start Mozilla/Phoenix with a popup?

Post by michel v »

I have some bookmarklet that opens a popup window (using window.open) to add content to my website (a functionnality most weblog tools provide), and I was thinking about how cool it would be to just have a shortcut to this bookmarklet on the desktop.

So, is there a way to call Mozilla/Phoenix to just display a popup window?

Show only popup window

You can put a html file like this one on your desktop:

<HTML>
<BODY onLoad="window.open('url','popupwin','width=440,height=380,top=40,left=60'); window.close();">
</BODY>
</HTML>

It opens the popup and then closes itself, so you have only the popup window.

It won't work when Phoenix is set to disable unrequested popup windows though. :(

chrome

Rework it as chrome. Probably 2 lines of XUL would do it. Chrome doesn't have the popup restriction.
