Setting minimum height and width for a chrome window in firefox

Question

I'm trying to limit the minimum height and width of a chrome (xul) window. The window itself is opened using the window.openDialog method. I tried using the minwidth and minheight window propertiet, but that does not seem to have any effect on the window. I also tries to limit the size by handling the onresize event as follows:

onresize()
{
  return false;
}

but this does not work as well.

Any clues ?

Answer 1

OK, I think I figured out the answer.

There is no straightforward solution. It seems that for sub-windows, opened by an open or opendialog method,it is impossible to limit the minimum size using the standard properties, however by using a combination of the onresize event handler and the window.resizeTo() method, I could get the window to maintain a minimum size.
