Show Modal Dialog Size Problem in IE

Posted on by Shaun W Harvey 242

Hi,

I am working on CRM 2011 (UR13) and trying to display an HTML Web resource (which contains a Silverlight XAP file) as a Modal Dialog from a Ribbon Button.

The Ribbon action XML is as below.

           <Actions>

             <Url Address="$webresource:new_Wizard.htm" PassParams="true" WinMode="1" WinParams="dialogHeight=100; dialogWidth=100" />

           </Actions>

In both Chrome and Firefox, the dialogHeight and dialogWidth values are honoured.

However, in IE these are ignored and the pop-up window is huge (almost full screen).

Has anyone else seen this behaviour or know a way to fix it?

Best Regards,

Shaun Harvey

    Have you tried height and width instead of dialogHeight and dialogWidth?

    Hi,

    Yes I did try that and Internet explorer was happy!

    However that broke the Chrome and Firefox browsers that were already working.....

    I have actually managed to find a different solution.

    I am opening up the HTML Web Resource from a Javascript Function instead (triggered by the click of the Ribbon Button).

    This function uses the Xrm.Utility.openWebResource() method introduced in Roll-Up 8  of CRM 2011.

    msdn.microsoft.com/.../jj602956(v=crm.5).aspx

    The Function call allows you to specify the web resource URL, and the size of the pop-up window.

    Xrm.Utility.openWebResource("new_webResource.htm?typename=account&userlcid=1033", null, 300, 300);

    You can try resizing the screen in the onload event using a JS script instead of sending the params.

    use this:

    window.resizeTo(480, 250);

    hope this helps at least as general culture!!
