Just use window open   function  The third parameter lets you specify window size  Example var strWindowFeatures    quot location yes height 570 width 520 scrollbars yes status yes quot   var URL    quot https   www linkedin com cws share mini true amp amp url  quot    location href  var win   window open URL   quot  blank quot   strWindowFeatures

Use window open      lt a onclick  window open document URL    blank    location yes height 570 width 520 scrollbars yes status yes     gt    Share Page  lt  a gt    This will create a link titled Share Page which opens the current url in a new window with a height of 570 and width of 520
