Add Record -POPUP Window size

What would be the correct syntax to add to this formula to designate the dimensions of the popup window ?
 
URLRoot() & "db/" & [_DBID_CONTACTS] & "?a=API_GenAddRecordForm&_fid_12=" & URLEncode ([Record ID# - Company])& "&z=" & Rurl()

    Try this syntax as a Rich Text Formula field


    var text URL=  ... your URL goes here;

    "<a class='Vibrant Success OpenAsPopup' data-height=500 data-width=500 data-refresh=true href=\"" & $url & "\" >your button words go here </a>"

    It is either no longer possible natively or the answer is in here towards the bottom. https://community.quickbase.com/communities/community-home/digestviewer/viewthread?MessageKey=93aaf152-6cbc-448c-aec2-5486acd65019&CommunityKey=d860b0f8-6a48-487b-b346-44c47a19a804&tab=digestviewer

    There is also a post there by Juiced Tech in which they say they have a solution but that is likely a paid solution just to prepare you. Good people over there though.

    Marks solution should work. That thread was when they first released the Openaspopup class. At first, they did not have a way to control the size of the popup - hence the thread.

    But shortly after that thread, they released a way to control the size AND whether or not the page you launched from refreshes when you close the popup (thats the data-referesh=true part).

        Hi Eric.

        I've been doing this for a little while now, applying what I learn but I still consider myself a beginner.  I ran into the same question trying to solve a formatting problem.  Would you be willing to share what the Rich Text Formula ended up looking like?

        Thank you.
