Notes

Since Firefox 7, it's no longer possible for a web site to change the default size of a window in a browser, according to the following rules:

1. You can't resize a window or tab that wasn’t created by window.open.
2. You can't resize a window or tab when it’s in a window with more than one tab.

See also window.resizeBy.
