Ugh. I'm sure I'm not the only one who hates this crap. Some sites, or pages like to be opened in popups which then resizes to a certain size. Not for ads, but for legitimate content.

But in this day and age of browsers with single windows full of tabs, plug-ins that keep all popup windows in the single window, this resizing crap is annoying as hell.

Basically what happens is when the window that thinks it's alone by itself floating in space decides to resize the browser taking all your tabs with it. This gets pretty damn annoying for people like me who have our windows set to a certain size. If I was on Windows, I'd just use Maximize but I'm a Mac user. I WANT MY WINDOW SIZES LEFT ALONE THANK YOU!

Has ANYONE written an add-on or script to cancel out ONLY the JavaScript commands that resize the window?

If not, how could I do it? Can JavaScript intercept itself?

window.innerWidth
window.innerHeight

document.body.clientWidth
document.body.clientHeight

I'm on FireFox 3.
