I want to open a popup link from the Joomla menu with the window being a specified size and without navigation. I suspect I will need to specify some parameters in the extended query strings but to be honest I have tried a lot of variables and nothing seems to work.
Here is the code I am using from a module to give you an idea of what I am thinking.
<p><a href="player.html" target="_blank" onclick="window.open('http://tunein.com/tuner/?StationId=93614','Player','width=450,height=310,left='+(screen.availWidth/2-225)+',top='+(screen.availHeight/2-100)+'');return false;"><img src="images/1.jpg" border="0" /></a></p>
I would like to achieve this same effect from a menu item. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Download the PHP/Javascript module from here
code.google.com/p/joomla-php/downloads/list
get either the top one (for joomla 1.6) or the second one down the list (joomla 1.5)
Create a new 'PHP module' and enter this into the script box (you can change the sizes etc... if you need to)<script type="text/javascript"> function mypopup() { mywindow = window.open("http://tunein.com/tuner/?StationId=93614", "mywindow", "location=1,status=1,scrollbars=0, width=450,height=310"); mywindow.moveTo(0, 0); } </script>
Call the module whatever you want and turn the 'Show title' to disabled and the position to 'Debug'
Then create a new menu item (External Link) and set the link to
javascript: mypopup()
All working smoothly
anywhere that you call the 'javascript: mypopup()' will create the window.
You can add more popup windows using the same module above and just adding to the JS code, anything in the Debug position is hidden.
