Code: [ Download ] [ Select ]
<table width="100%">


JavaScript (depending on what the code does) is usually best in between the <head></head> tags.

Qsic: Are you asking about resizing the browser window, or the layout?

Depending on if you want to have your webpage fill the height of the page you should include this attribute in your main table: style="height:100%;"

You could use height="100%" but I believe that's been depreciated.

or it could just resize the browser to fit the content either way. Browser to fit the content, or content to fit the browser.

People aren't going to resize their windows to fit your content :D .

I would suggest having the layout size itself to the available area in the window. To do this, you would use percentage based layouts for TABLEs, DIVs or whatever your primary containing objects were.

I don't use tables. At all. It's one big image map. I hate tables. So how do I tell the browser to resize to 600x800 or how do I tell the image to resize itself to fit inside the browser window. Can someone tell me.... It doesnt' seem like that big of a question.

I pulled this off of some site, I'm not that familiar with Javascript, but it'd be what you'd have to use.

Code: [ Download ] [ Select ]
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
window.resizeTo(800,600)
-->
</script>
  1. <script language="JavaScript">
  2. <!--
  3. window.resizeTo(800,600)
  4. -->
  5. </script>


I'm sure you know this, but this will annoy users alot! Also if anyone has javascript turned off this effect won't happen.

Then you'll need to use our table examples or CSS.
