Answer 1

You can't resize window if it's not opened with window.open()

And you can't distinguish between minimizing the window and switching to a different tab.

There are 2 ways:

• open current window with window.open() at first.

or

• open new window when current window is minimized.

code for the second one:

var url = "http://google.com";
var options =   "resizable"+
                ",height=500,width=500"+
                ",top=9999,left=0"; // left bottom

// on browser visibility changed
document.addEventListener("visibilitychange", function() {
    if(document.hidden){
        // on window minimized (or tab switched)
        window.open(url, "window name", options);
    }
    else{
        // on window restored
    }
}, false);
