Function behaves strange in Opera while working in mozzila, IE

[Koyan]

Hallo everbody,
I am using the following function:

function MultimediaOpenWnd (ids,action1,captions,wd,ht) {
var features = "width=" + wd + ",height=" + ht
+ "scrollbars=yes,menubar=no";

window.open("/international_en/multimedia/image-popup?id=" + ids
+ "&actionval=" +action1+ "&caption="+captions+"",
"ImagePopUp",features)
}

To open a pop up window with a specified size for viewing images.
This works fine in Iexplorer and Mozzila but it doesn't in Opera:
The window opens in the specified size, then it starts downloading the
text and the image, and when it finishes downloading, the window gets
smaller again.

Any idea why would this be happening?

Thanks
Koyan

Have you tried submitting this to Opera's page display group? It
seems to be quite a low traffic group, but if no-one can help you
here, it could be a good place to try.

You'll have to use Opera's news server, news.opera.com
The group's name is opera.page-display

Does the loaded page resize the window?

I will try there. Thanks for the info.

No it doesn't.
And this is the strange thing: the same javascript works as it is
supposed to work in Iexplorer and Mozzila, but not in opera.

If you want to test it yourself:
Example: go to http://www.greenpeace.org/international_en/
The first of the 3 pictures (the one with the logs). If you see the source
of the page, the link of this
image tells the javascript function to open a window of size 535 , 541.

If you then press on the image, originally a 535 , 541 window opens, which
when everything gets downloaded
gets smaller, actually it gets the size 520,460.

If you do the same thing in IE or in Mozzilla the final window has the
size 535 , 541.
