	var width = "300"; // popup width
	var height = "100"; // popup height
	var left = (screen.width - width) / 2 ;
	var top = (screen.height - height) / 2;
	var windowproperties = "fullscreen=1, scrollbars=0";
	newwin = window.open(url, name, windowproperties);
	newwin.resizeTo(width, height);
	newwin.moveTo(left, top);
}
