I am trying to create a macro which opens a mozilla webpage window at a specific position and in a specific size. I can open the page but cant change its size

Set ObjShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

ObjShell.Run ("c:\progra~1\mozill~1\firefox.exe http://blarney.uk.tmo/login.aspx")

Set ObjShell = Nothing

End Sub

Here is one for IE which works

Sub IE() 

       Dim oIE As Object

       Set oIE = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")

       oIE.Navigate2 "www.google.com"
       oIE.Height = CInt(Int((1000 * Rnd()) + 1))
       oIE.Width = CInt(Int((1000 * Rnd()) + 1))
       oIE.Visible = True

   End Sub

Hi

Thank you for your question. This sounds very much like a programming question that is a little above our level of expertise on the Support Forum (we mainly look at Firefox product issues).

I recommend that you ask about this in Stack Overflow where I am sure one of the experts there will be able to help.
