Hi, I'm new to web design and have what I think will be a very easy question for you guys to help me with...

I'm creating a photo gallery, I know how to make the gallery pop up in a new browser window but I can't for the life of me figure out how to make that window only 550 px wide and non-resizable...

I'm currently running dreamweaver Cs4 for mac in case that changes anything.

Thank you all in advance!!!

Have you thought about using a lightbox script instead? Opening a new window is generally recognised as a usability issue these days. Slimbox is a good one.
