I'm trying to create a bookmarklet to do some very specific resizing to do browser size testing, and I can't seem to get the web browser to resize using window.resizeTo.
Overly simplified example that doesn't work:
javascript:window.resizeTo(1024,600);
I can understand that browsers might have disabled this feature, but here's a screenshot of my JavaScript Settings in Firefox:
Am I missing something obvious or should I file a bug report?

Prevent Browser Resize Css CSS can be used to prevent browser resizing. By using the max-width property, you can set a maximum width for the browser window. If the browser window is resized to be smaller than the max-width, the browser will automatically adjust the size of the elements on the page.
The resizeTo() method is used to resizes a window to the specified width and height. Parameter Values: width: Sets the width of the window, in pixels. height: Sets the height of the window, in pixels.
According to this bug report, this is a new feature, not a bug. Specifically:
Two rules:
- Can't resize a window/tab that hasn't been created by window.open.
- Can't resize a tab if the tab is in a window with more than one tab.
If I understand this "fix" correctly, you can resize only your own popup windows, not the main window.
