You have to use JavaScript. Here's a tutorial. Though you should consider that most people hate it when you pop open windows and resize things like their window. I have that stuff blocked on my browser so you should make sure it doesn't break for people like me, otherwise you'll lose visitors.

Tip: don't mess with the user's browser.

If a website loads and messes with my browser window, I immediately close it and never go there again.

What you should do is center your content in the browser window (without resizing the window itself).

What he said. Nothing is more annoying than a site resizing my window. If you want to maintain your layout, use a fixed width layout.
