42544 - Window sizing with javascript

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 9606

(Core :: DOM: Core & HTML, defect, P3)

Description

[Linda Baliman]

From Karl-Heinz Dalhmann, Ticket Online sidebar tab developer

If you open a window in javascript, the size is not correct. 
If you give the size of the window in pixel, NS46 displays a new window 
and the inner size of that window is the hight and the width you gave in 
the open windows script command. 
NS6 displays a window with the outer size of these values. 
When you load "www.ticketonline.de" you can see a scroll bar because 
the content doesn't fit vertically in that window. 
You can see attached files NS6_new_window and 
NS46_new_window.

Mark, can you please triage this from Clayton's list.

Looks like the problem is simple: the window size being specified is not the 
inside dimensions, like in IE and Nav4, it is the outside dimensions.

Out of complete ignorance I am assigning to Javascript Engine owner.... Please 
forward to correct culprit if this is the wrong place.
