Opening pop up in Joomla

Question

I am trying to have people be able to open HTML widgets by clicking on a button in my Joomla page. All the widgets are different sizes. The code is entered as HTML in Jumi. Currently I have the action set to:

"On click open in new window without browser navigation."

The problem is this this always opens in a full screen size with the widget showing up in a corner.

How do I control the size of this new window for each widget?

Thanks

Answer 1

Can you provide a code sample of how you're calling the new window? Or the URL?

If you're just doing target="_blank" you're not forwarding any container information for the new window, which sounds like the behavior you're describing.

There are many lightbox/slimbox options available for download at extensions.joomla.com which could help address this for you as well.

Good luck.
