how do you make IE's home page change the size/location of the browser?

long title, i know.

before i formatted, my friend gave me this code to set for your home page to resize your browser and move it to wherever you set. i remember it was javascript, but i know nothing about javascript. i looked on google, but it's 1:45am and i only had macaroni 'n' cheese for food today.

thanks 🙂

If I understand you correctly then I believe that windows will just remember the last window size/position whenever you close IE. I know that whenever I do a fresh format I have to mazimize IE and then close it in order to make it always pop up maximized. Am I making any sense or am I just rambling?

Set the page at the size and position you want it, then double click the little ie page symbol in the upper left. The window will close and remember that as the default position.

My homepage is set to this: javascript:resizeTo(800,570);document.location.href='blank'

I know there are some other options you can use, I think I got it from an article in pcworld or pcmag

edit: Try here

What if you want to ENABLE view status bar by default, how do you do that?
