259190 - advanced javascript option to ignore resizable=no

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 176304

(Firefox :: General, enhancement)

Description

[Norbert]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8a4) Gecko/20040911 Firefox/0.9.1+
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8a4) Gecko/20040911 Firefox/0.9.1+

Some (popup) windows are non-resizable.

I think an option in "Advanced JavaScript Options" to override this (to have all
Firefox windows resizable) would be nice.

Reproducible: Always

Give me an example URL of a site with these kinds of popups so I can test.

I think your pref already exists in firefox. Try unchecking "Move or resize
windows" in Advanced JavaScript Options.

(Make sure to have "Status Bar" unchecked. It looks like a bug, that if Status
Bar is enabled, the window is always resizable. But I will submit another bug
therefor.

No, I think this is something different. I guess this option forbids javascript
to move or resize windows by the webpage (not by the user).

After reading bug 176304 more exactly, I agree that my bug is a duplicate,
because there is some discussion about the here described problem. Sorry for the
spam...
