Hi,

I'm using 'window.open()' method to open a new window to show a page, but I found that the 'Resizable=no' option did not work.

$("#open").click(function () {
                var width = 600;
                var height = 800;
                var left = (screen.width - width) / 2;
                var top = (screen.height - height) / 2;
                var win = window.open('./Home/Update', 'updatePage',
                    'width=' + width + ',height=' + height + ',left=' + left + ',top=' + top + ',scrollbars=no,location=no, menubar=no,Resizable=no');
            });

Does the Edge support the 'Resizable=no' option? If not, is there any ways to disable the maximize button when open a new window?

Thanks,
Steven

    For security reasons this feature was removed long ago and never added to edge

    Hi @Xie Steven ,

    Agree with Bruce, we can't disable the minimize and maximize buttons in the browsers.

    As an alternative workaround, you could consider using the Bootstrap Modal or JQuery UI dialog to display the page content. You can use JQuery.Get method to get the page content, then append the response html to the Bootstrap Modal body or the dialog body, finally use JavaScript method to show the modal or the dialog. In this case, there are no minimize and maximize buttons.
