    window.open('http://localhost/a.php', 'jav',
        'width=300,height=200,resizable=yes,location=no,scrollbars=no'); 
  } 
</script>

<a href="javascript:newwindow()">Click Here</a>

Answer 1

Chrome will not allow you to do this for security reasons. Hiding the address bar makes it easier to pretend you're somebank.com when really you're somenigerianguy.com.

As for the scrollbar, you can use css on a.php to hide the scrollbars by setting overflow: hidden.

Answer 2

To hide the scrollbar: try setting "overflow: hidden;" in the css

You can't open a popup without location bar like in IE, to workaround this you could use an iframe or some third party jQuery plugin
