For IE, it opens in a regular window. You might need to join this group to see this problem. Or if you are a member of "any" yahoo group, pls visit the Chat page of that group. Would really appreciate a fix / work around. Our group has a weekly online study chat (wednesday). Thanks Ajay Gautam Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Goto above page or to any yahoo group's chat page Actual Results: Same as description Expected Results: The chat window should be a decent size.

The hight and width of the applet are specified as &(innerWidth-200) and &(innerHeight-160) If you change these to different values (say 800x600), the applet will open with a decent size. Looks like innerWidth/innerHeight don't have the correct values when the applet is displayed.

Well, we usually do not control over the source code of the HTMLs, such as yahoo groups, so we cannot change the values. Is it possible to change the size without changing the source ? If so, please tell me how. Another interesting point: Why does the applet opens in IE in an acceptable size, but not in mozilla. I guess, the code for both would be the same. Thanks Ajay

Looks like innerWidth/innerHeight > don't have the correct values when the applet is displayed. Tried it: Did not work. Saved a local copy of them html page, changed the values and loaded the HTML page again: Same result. I could really use this, if someone has a fix / work around. Thanks Ajay

Hi Ajay, The original code reads: height="innerHeight-xxx" width="innerWidth-yyy", xxx and yyy being numeric constants. Did you change xxx and/or yyy? Or did you change the code to read height="400" width="1000", or whatever fits on your screen?

Marcus, The original code belogs to Yahoo Groups, and opens fine in IE. I have not tried opening the link in IE myself (I despise IE), but have heard from other people that it works fine in IE. Tried again with 2002072208 build on XP: unsucessful. Modfying the code locally and using that page would be a work around rather than a bug fix. Actually, I am not even sure if it is a bug or not... As a side note, I have been able to sucessfully use other Java applets in mozilla :) Thanks Ajay Gautam

Yes, it is a workaround. And this workaround shows that Mozilla has a problem with innerWidth/innerHeight. Are these two part of the DOM? I'm able to use other Java-Applets. Does the same problem happen, if the java applet is replaced with another object or an iframe? Thanks Marcus

I am not sure if I understand what you are talking about. If there is something
that you want me to try, do let me know. I will report back with results...
Thanks

Hmmm, maybe I wasn't specific enough. We know that specifying an applets size relative to innerWidth/innerHeight doesn't work. But what happens if we replace the APPLET-Tag with something else, and specify the size of the new object relative to innerWidth/innerHeight. So this would mean taking the Source-Code of the page, and replacing the APPLET-Tag with e.g. an IFRAME-Tag. How big is the resulting iframe? The alternative would be to write a short javascript, that get's the values for innerWidth/innerHeight and output's them to the page. What are the initial values? What about other width/height measurements (window/screen)? Do the values change when the window is resized?

I would be happy to help, but I am a little short on web programming (Java script etc). I am hearing IFRAME for the first time. Today I downloaded the applet code (from yahoo group) and changed the "inner" values, but did not have any success. If there are a few specific steps that you want me to take and report back, I will be happy to do so. Thanks Ajay

This is a modified version of http://de.groups.yahoo.com/christliche-singles/chat. The chat-applet should be 800x600 pixels in size.

This is a patch that modifies http://de.groups.yahoo.com/christliche-singles/chat so the chat-window has a size of 800x600 pixels. The same modifications should also work for other Yahoo! Chat sites.

Hi Ajay, I attached a modified version of a Yahoo! Chat site, as well as patch containing the modifications I made. Could you take a look at it? I think this should also help to pinpoint the problem. Marcus

Wow, that worked real good :) Actually, I was converting height="&{innerHeight-200};" to height="&{innerHeight-400};" instead if height="400". Anyway, any plans to fix the root cause of this ? Thanks Ajay Gautam
