Window positioning on exit

[serendipity]

Hi,

I've got this piece of code below:

function leave() {
window.open('../newindowonexit.html','','toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,height=440,width=330');
}

what do I add to to open the new window in exactly the position I want it to open? say right in the middle of the page etc. I know its has something to do with x and y coordinates but I dunno how to put it into code.

thanks for any replies!

function leave() {
window.open('../newindowonexit.html','','toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,top=100,left=300,height=440,width=330');
}Top and left are the number of pixels from the top and from the left that you wish the upper left corner of the new window to be.

If you wanted it in the middle:

window.open('../newindowonexit.html','','toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,top=' + ((screen.height / 2) - 220) + ',left=' + ((screen.width / 2) - 165) + ',height=440,width=330');

Thanks for all the tips guys! I'll surely use both of them.

One thing, though...now, that I know, the simple stuff...what if I have different links opening different windows/pages that need several types of positioning and customisation?
