Object Constructor

The process of creating the Windows component implies the creation of two objects:

viewport, which will define zone of window's activity ( needs to be created only once )
window object itself

var myWins = new dhtmlXWindows(skin);
myWins.createWindow(id, left, top, width, height);

where

skin - (string) changes window's skin (setSkin())
id - id of a window
left - horizontal position of a window
top - vertical position of a window
width - width of a window
height - height of a window

The full list of initialization properties for the createWindow method is given below.

var myWins = new dhtmlXWindows()
myWins.createWindow("about", 20, 30, 300, 200);

Windows can also be initialized by object notation

var myWins = new dhtmlXWindows({
    image_path:"codebase/imgs/",
    skin:"dhx_blue"
});
myWins.createWindow({
    id:"about",
    left:20,
    top:30,
    width:300,
    height:200,
    center:true,
    onClose:function(){
        alert("I'm closed");
    }
});
