By default, dialog boxes are not resizeable. You can change this behavior by simply setting the resizable parameter to yes. Pop up a resizeable window created with this invocation:

window.showModalDialog('010818.html','','resizable:yes');
Play around with it and prove to yourself that indeed the window is resizeable. The possible values of the resizable property are: yes, no, 1, 0, on, and off. Their semantics are intuitive.
