I have found that a site is launching my website in a window that is
not sizeable and does not have scrollbars. This prevents my website
from being completely useable.

I know how to bust out of a frame to a full window, but is there a way
to detect this situation and then either make a window sizeable and
scrollable again, or break out to a normal window?

Thanks!

Right-click on the titlebar and select to make a normal window.

Try Ctrl-N?

Thanks for the reply, but you misunderstand. I want to prevent my
website from being launched in that type of window from another site,
or I want to dynamically detect the nonscrollable nonsizeable window
and change it so that it is at least scrollable, and preferably
sizeable.

By the way, your right-click suggestion does not appear to work even if
I had wanted to know how to do it from a user standpoint. When I right
click on the title bar in IE, I get the standard dropdown with Move,
Size, Minimize, Maximize, and Close, but everything is disabled except
for Minimize and Close.

Thanks anyway!
 
Thanks for the reply, at least your suggestion works if I find myself
in this situation when I am browsing. But what I need is a way to
prevent my website from being launched in that type of window from
another site, or I want to dynamically detect the nonscrollable
nonsizeable window and change it so that it is at least scrollable, and
preferably sizeable.

Thanks!
