I have designed a page that has several links on it that I have set to open
in a new window. When you click on them they open properly in a new window
but that window is small. Is there anyway to ensure that the new window will
open maximized so it is the same size at the parent window? Thanks

Unless you have included some "script" that is dictating the window size, a "New Window" will open
in the size the "user" has set on their machine.

It may have to do with the way your browser is set. Try opening a new page
from your browser menu. It opens in a smaller window, expand it, then turn off
the computer and back on and try again. Worked for me anyway.

Don't make decisions like that for your visitors. That sort of option is
best handled locally -- there may be good reasons why someone does not
want a new window to open maximized...
