How To Pass Parameters In Window.open()?

[tinfanide]

<script>function lightboxPage(opt){var url = "lightbox.html";var target = "_blank";var windowFeatures = "fullscreen=1";window.open(url, target, windowFeatures);}</script></head><a href="javascript: lightboxPage();">Lightbox</a>

I want to pass 0 or 1 to the fullscreen property.I have tried but it fails:

<script>function lightboxPage(opt){var url = "lightbox.html";var target = "_blank";var windowFeatures = "fullscreen='""+opt+'"window.open(url, target, windowFeatures);}</script></head><a href="javascript: lightboxPage(1);">Lightbox</a>

Your quotes are the wrong way round - think about it...

[tinfanide]

<script>function lightboxPage(opt){    var url = "lightbox-gallery.html";    var target = "_blank";    var windowFeatures = "fullscreen="+opt;    window.open(url, target, windowFeatures);    }</script>

I use 0 or 1 instead of no or yes for the opt parameter and do this"fullscreen=" + opt;But if the parameter is no or yes, it fails.

What fails? The code is correct.

[tinfanide]

<script>function lightboxPage(opt){    var url = "lightbox-gallery.html";    var target = "_blank";    var windowFeatures = "fullscreen="+opt;    window.open(url, target, windowFeatures);    }</script> <a href="javascript: lightboxPage(yes);">Lightbox</a>

I didn't know what's wrong with the code. The above one was what I wrote.Maybe I should do like this:

lightboxPage('yes')

Should I? Really no idea of how to pass the parameter in this case...

[Don E]

Should work with:

lightboxPage('yes');

[tinfanide]

Well... it works but the opened window is not full screen as expected.It's full screen if the parameter is an integer (0 or 1).

[justsomeguy]

Then use a 1 or 0.

[tinfanide]

That means yes or no cannot be passed as parameters?

Test it.If "yes" and "no" don't work, then you can't use them. Mozilla documentation says that fullscreen is not supported by any browser except Internet Explorer 6.https://developer.mozilla.org/en/DOM/window.open#section_8

fullscreen Do not use. Not implemented in Mozilla. There are no plans to implement this feature in Mozilla. This feature no longer works in MSIE 6 SP2 the way it worked in MSIE 5.x. The Windows taskbar, as well as the titlebar and the status bar of the window are not visible, nor accessible when fullscreen is enabled in MSIE 5.x. fullscreen always upsets users with large monitor screen or with dual monitor screen. Forcing fullscreen onto other users is also extremely unpopular and is considered an outright rude attempt to impose web author's viewing preferences onto users.

Yes, I've read that document when I've been dragging in the fullscreen issue. AndI've been searching solutions online and there's few "possible" solutions. It seems it's not possible. Yes, I've also tested I cannot use yes or no as parameter. Why I ask is just curiosity.
