Most of following things require node-webkit >= 0.2.4

DOM has provided some functions to create, close, resize and move windows, but due to browser's security consideration, the things you can do are much restricted. But with node-webkit, you're much free with window operations.

To create a window, use the familiar window.open(URL,name,specs) which is mainly used to popup ad windows in browser ;-)

Parameter meanings:

• URL specifies the URL of the page to open, it can be a page in your app package.
• name specifies the target attribute or the name of the window. It has no use currently.
• specs specifies window features, screenX and screenY set new window's position, width and height set new window's size.

An example:

window.open('popup.html', '_blank', 'screenX=0,screenY=0,width=100,height=100');

To close a window, use window.close();.

By using window.focus() and window.blur(), you can move focus between your windows. To focus on parent window, you can use window.opener.focus().

The window.resizeTo(width,height) method resizes a window to the specified width and height.

The window.resizeBy(width,height) method resizes a window by the specified amount.

The window.moveTo(x,y) method moves a window's left and top edge to the specified coordinates.

The window.moveBy(x,y) method moves a window a specified number of pixels relative to its current coordinates.

Traditional javascript dialogs alert, confirm and prompt are supported in node-webkit.

The alert() method displays an alert box with a specified message and an OK button.

The confirm() method displays a dialog box with a specified message, along with an OK and a Cancel button.

The prompt() method displays a dialog box that prompts the visitor for input.

The window.navigator.language shows locale of current system, the default one is en-US if node-webkit cannot dig out locale information. You can use it to implement l10n functions.
