Can I open a window minimized?

Colin Fraser, Maureen Bolger,
Not without some real bother I think. To open a window smaller than
100*100 in NN you have to sign the script, and in IE well that is a
different story. However, you may want to try this:
<a href="javascript:void" onClick="if (document.images)
window.resizeTo(100,100)">Resize your window</a>
As an alternative what you may want to do is to send the newly created
page to the back, behind anything else you have opened. In the calling
page you may want to try something like :
<body onBlur="setTimeout('self.focus()',2000)">
This code means you always have this page on top, and refreshing itself
every 2 seconds. Of course, the only tiome that this page actually loses
the focus is when it closes.
