Firefox Popup Window Resize

For some reason, some popups in Firefox have been opening with the wrong size for the content displayed and the resize feature was disabled for the windows.

After some research, I found that in Firefox you can override this behavior by changing one of the many user preferences.

To do this

  1. Type about:config in the location bar and press enter

  2. Search for the "dom.disable_window_open_feature.resizable" entry

  3. Change the boolean value from false to true


Setting this to true will prevent a window from disabling the resize feature.
