Pop Up Calculator Add-On Addressing a community of Engineers on an intranet, I find it valuable to offer a popup calculator. This particular one is nice-looking and works no matter your browser (ie / firefox) / operating system (MS-windows / linux).

Note: You do not need to install anything on the browser to use this add-on. The following instructions are for the administrator who installs the add-on on the server where TWiki is running.

%TMPL:DEF{"script"}%
<script type="text/javascript">
<!-- HIDE
/*****************************/
/*      openPopupWin         */

var popupWin;

    popupWin.close();
  var chasm = screen.availWidth;
  var mount = screen.availHeight;
  var w = 240;
  var h = 410;
                                                                                                                                   
  popupWin=window.open(addr,'popupWin','status=no, width=' + w + ',height=' + h + ',left='
                           + ((chasm - w - 10) * .5) + ',top=' + ((mount - h - 30) * .5));
