What suite(s) are Playboy using for the Hangar Queen shots? :-)

Heh. I should be so lucky!

We had this discussion before. Pictures on your web site negate any other
attempt to format based on window size. The browser has no way to
"line-wrap" a picture...a picture is as wide as it is, and if it's wider
than the browser window, you'll have to scroll horizontally to see it all.

Nothing you do to the formatting elsewhere will change this.


There is no way to make a photo scale to screen size?

That sucks. I thought I had this licked.

"No way" might be a little strong. I'm no HTML expert, but I'd guess you
could include some sort of scripting that loads an appropriately sized
bitmap according to the window size. There may even be some script or Java
code you could include that would resize a bitmap on the fly.

But no, as far as I know, you can't resize an image automatically just with
regular HTML.

Setting percentage widths on your tables makes the *tables* scale to
screen size; text will of course re-flow as the table gets narrower/wider.

Fixed width elements - images, generally, or a nested table if you've
specified a width in pixels - won't ever scale, AFAIK, and they can't
flow.

Doesn't IE support that? If not, what is the function of
ToolsInternet OptionsAdvancedEnable Automatic Image Resizing?

Download the very fine (and free!) viewer from www.irfanview.com . It
has a rescale capability and can view just about any format file you
ever heard of.

One trick you can use is to break the picture up vertically into
smaller elements that are just placed right next to each other, and
then when the window is resized, they can just pile up. It's messy
when the user does that, but it makes the site more usable.

Freedom. It seemed like a good idea at the time.
for Email, make the obvious change in the address.

That will do absolutely nothing for him. Jay wants some way to force everybody
else's browser to resize the image to fit their screen, no matter what browser
they're using.
