yeah, there is a behaivour that allows you to use javascript to open the window at a certain size.

failing that you can use javascript to resize the window onload. But bear in mind that a lot of users find it annoying when websites "take over" control of window sizing

the function call is:
PHP Code:
 window.self.resizeTo(250,700); 

but you need to play about with the sizing depending on what chroming is present in the user's browser
