simple function shows problem

<button onclick="return(fnBtnMin());">Min</button>

function fnBtnMin() 
{
   alert("Resize this page?");
   moveTo(100,200);
   resizeTo(400,400);
}

Alert show but window does not move or size. Has worked in other version of firefox but stopped in version 8. Safari stills work.

You can't resize the main window. You can only resize windows that are opened via a window.open() call.
