ATTN programming wizards: need sig help.

[Gargoyle]

How can I get my rig specs to show in a new window? That'd be nice, so I take up less room on the page with my sig, but the all the pertinent info would still be there when, inevitably, my stuff breaks down and I try to get you all to help me fix it :D

Also, is there a way to do it without hosting anything on another server?

Thanks.

What do you mean by - In a new Window? You mean like, click it and it pops up a window?

<a href="Rig specs on a webpage on another host" target=_"blank">Click here to see rig specs</a>

Thrax had this to say
&lt;a href=&quot;Rig specs on a webpage on another host&quot; target=_&quot;blank&quot;&gt;Click here to see rig specs&lt;/a&gt;

He said without hosting on another server....

To be honest, I can't think of one that doesn't use Java or VBScript, and that wouldn't work anyway due to forum protection....

[Thrax]

I know what he said, but it's not going to happen.

IMHO a custom background for the f@h sigs and having the specs on the right side of it and scrolling would look better.

Thanks all. I'll look into the free university hosting I get and we'll see if it can stand up to the traffic. If not I'll take Blackhawk's suggestion.

Ok, I've got some hosting now. Is there any way to get the new window to open at a certain size without using java? (java wouldn't work in the sig, right?)

You have to use Java, but it can be done inline, so it will be ok.

What you need is this -


<a href="#" onClick="javaScript:window.open('http://atomnet.co.uk','height=420,width=800')">Stats</a>


But alter the values respectively, i.e. Change "Atomnet.co.uk" into the address of the page with the stats on, and change the 420 800 to the height and width you want and it will work like this -

EDIT: Nope, I give up. It must be something php is doing to fault it. I made a workaround on Icrontic, but the code has long gone.
