#35121 — Edge and window.open

Using this

var win = window.open("base/index.htm", "Preview", "width=800,height=600");

results in an window that's initially 880 x 659 pixels in

Microsoft Edge 42.17134.1.0
Microsoft EdgeHTML 17.17134

on Windows 10 Pro v.1803 build 17134.48


A bug! Is there a workaround?

No, and it is presumptous of you to claim that you have found one.

No, it works as designed.

Are you saying that the horizontal scrollbar has a height of 59 points?

-- 
quote from <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/open>:
height
Specifies the height of the content area, viewing area of the new
secondary window in pixels. The height value includes the height of the
horizontal scrollbar if present. The minimum required value is 100.

Microsoft EdgeHTML 17.17134


edge.html / edge2.html:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Edge test</title>
<script>
var url=window.location.href;
if (window.innerWidth>1000) {
	var win = window.open("edge2.html", "Preview", "width=800,height=600");
	}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="myFunction()">
Edge test-pagina

<p id="demo"></p>

<script>
function myFunction() {
    var w = window.innerWidth;
    var h = window.innerHeight;
    document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = "Width: " + w +
"<br>Height: " + h;
}
</script>


</body>
</html>

With the same code I get an 800x600 (within 2pixels) window in IE, 
Chrome, and Firefox but not in Edge. Edge gives me 882x659 (and google 
says this was a known issue with early version of Edge).

As you can read in the referred MDN article, there is no reason to assume 
that the dimensions specified in the third argument of window.open() specify 
the popup *window* size.

If instead you meant that the popup window’s observed *viewport* size 
differed from the size that you specified, you should have said so
instead of just claiming a bug.  Also, you have neglected to describe
your measuring method.

JFTR:

In Chromium “Version 57.0.2987.98 Built on 8.7, running on Debian 
stretch/sid (64-bit)”,

  var w = window.open("about:blank", "", "width=640,height=480");

consistently displays a blank popup window whose viewport dimensions are

  w.innerWidth  === 414
  w.innerHeight === 480

here with Mobile View with “iPhone 6 Plus 414 × 763” enabled (consistently 
w.innerWidth === 640 otherwise, as the full screen has 1366 × 768 pixels and 
allows for it).

And I do not think that is a bug either.

To me "height: Specifies the height of the content area, viewing area of 
the new secondary window in pixels." reads like it describes the height 
of the viewport.

I took a screen capture and measured in a paint program.

Yep you're right (again). Edge had a zoom set to 110% :-(
