Browser Window Size via an LMS

Greetings,
We post our movies to an LMS and everything works just great.
One thing: I'd like the movies launch via theLMS to appear in
a specific window size. I can edit the .html files and manually
paste a javascript into the file to make this happen. But that
means I have to edit the html file each time. That can be a bit
problematic considering we have several hundred movies.
I believe that editing the seed "standard.htm" file with a
javascript will make this happen. Is there another seed file that I
need to edit as well? For instance, is there something I need to do
to the scorm_support.htm file located in the Scorm Support folder?
Either way, does someone have a javascript I can paste into
either file? I cannot seem to be able to make this work.

CBTer,
I'm not sure if you found it, but since you are using
Captivate, you can
modify the "template" file (depending what version of
Captivate, it's found
at "C:\Program Files\Macromedia\Captivate\Templates\Publish")
and find the
AICC.htm or SCORM.htm files for editing. NOTE: This would
only affect the
size of the Flash application in the browser.
If you want to affect the actual browser window, you can
[potentially] make
a change in your LMS, if it's supported as previously
suggested OR you can
make a new HTML file that redirects to your
Captivate-published file. This
is more tricky if you need to support the AICC standard. I
think I have
something around - are you using AICC or SCORM?
Oh, to affect the actual browser window - you really want to
do this when
the browser is LAUNCHED and thus should modify the thing that
actually
launched the browser (whether this is the LMS or a new
browser file that
launches another browser window using the settings you want).

Andrew

How to get header to stay centered on different browser window sizes

Hi,
Is there a way to change the header design so it stays
centered and moves to accommodate different browser window sizes?
Right now, it stays where it is, and everything else moves and
stays centered as window size changes. I'm a new Dreamweaver user.
the url is
http://ellifolks.com/
I tried changing the template I made for the site, and was
able to delete some things, but it won't let me add things now. I
can't undo to where it started, either. I tried doing a second
template. Now I can't save anything -- I get a message saying
"sharing issues".
Thank you.

Combining absolutely positioned elements with centering
tables (as you have)
accounts for about 20% of the posts on this forum. It's
commonly done
because it seems so easy. This is one of the penalties you
pay for taking
that easy road.
The answer to your question is yes, you can do this.
1. Make this image the page background -
http://ellifolks.com/images/ellifolks_web_header_repeat.gif
- and use CSS to
give it a style of background-repeat:repeat-x.
2. Place your assembled header within a STATIC div (i.e., NOT
a layer) at
the top of the page by changing this -
<div id="apDiv1"><img
src="images/dots_header_left.gif" width="175"
height="192" alt="dots left" /></div>
<div id="apDiv2">
<div align="center"><img
src="images/header_animals_logo.gif" width="759"
height="195" alt="ellifolks logo" /></div>
</div>
<div id="apDiv3"><img
src="images/dots_header_right.gif" alt="dots right"
width="175" height="192" /></div>
to this -
<div id="header"><img
src="images/dots_header_left.gif" width="175"
height="192" alt="dots left" /><img
src="images/header_animals_logo.gif"
width="759" height="195" alt="ellifolks logo" /><img
src="images/dots_header_right.gif" alt="dots right"
width="175" height="192"
/></div>
3. Add this to your CSS -
#header { width:1109px; margin:0 auto; }
That should do the trick.

Browser Window Size when entering a web page

I am Looking for a script that would load a web page in a
specific browser window size with no scroll upon people entering
the page. I've looked all over and only could find pop up window
scripts. I would like to have a specific browser window size from
START of entry to my web page. Thank you for your help in
advance.

> I would like to have a specific
> browser window size from START of entry to my web page.
While you might like that, nearly all of your site visitors
will NOT like
that.
Fortunately, most browsers today have listened to those
complaints and have
disabled the resizing and removing of chrome from windows
that are already
open/created.
As such, if you want to attempt to control the browser
windows, then you
have to use a pop-up link.

Set browser window size?

Is it possible to set the browser window - specifically IE - when opening my form when using seperateFrame=false?
I am developing a single window app that is lost in the IE window when it starts up. I would like to size the IE window in relation to my app when it opens.
Also, can I display something other than the dark grey background surrounding my form - perhaps replace it with a nice jpg?
Thanks
Richard

Richard,
- only if you start the browser window from another using javascript (window.open()) you can define the size of the browser window.
- set background = <image name> in the formsweb.cfg file

Setting New Browser Window Size

Hello out there -
I have an HTML page with a flash peice containing nav buttons
linking to a photo tour by location:
http://www.snowolf-digital.com/clients/rysaw/map_test.html..
Anyway, I am trying to get a new browser window to open in a
specific size (675 x 500).. The test location (button) is "Folsom".
Currently the new window opens fine using the( _self) command - but
I am unable to get the exact size for that window.. Here is what I
tried in the button action script:
on (release) {
getURL("photoload_folsom.swf","_self('width=675,height=500')")
Any ideas out there? Is this something really easy and
obvious and I am just missing it?
Much appreciated,
Chris

Dreamweaver CS4 how do I make a website adjust to browser window Size

I know there is a solution to this but not sure how to find it.
I have created my website and have a "wrapper" in my css
I would like the whole site to automatically adjust in conjunction to the size the browser window is , larger or smaller etc.
How do I write the code and where do I place it?
Thanks
Kathryn

Add a percentage width to your Wrapper Division's CSS code. 100% fills the viewport.
#wrapper {
width: 80%;
margin: 0 auto; /**centered on screen**/
See also min-and max-widths to limit how much the page can be re-sized.

How Do I Set a Specific Browser Window Size?

I have a question about setting a browser window to open up
at a specific size. I would like to have a pop-up window open up to
a 400 x 600 pixel window. Is this possible in Dreamweaver? Is there
hard code I can place in to make this happen? Any help on this
would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks...:-)

Select the link that will open the new window, and then apply
the Open
Browser Window behavior from the Behaviors panel.

Browser Window Size

Hey Ya'll,
We uploaded our training module into our clients LMS. A user launched the module and could not resize the browser window. Our module is 800x600px. The user would like to maximize the window but the maximize button is grayed out. Is there an option in Captivate I need to change or update so our users can resize their web browser window? Thanks in advance!

Could you have a look at this thread, perhaps this answers your question:

How do you float and image or text so that it remains centered for a given browser window size (horizontally aligned).

Is it possible to float images horizontally in muse (horizontally aligned) such that an image or text remains in the center of a browser window regardless of its dimensions. The pin feature is capable of accomplishing this but it has the unwanted effect of, well, pinning it. There must be a way other than manually changing the code outside of muse after each change.
Thanks,

Hmm, tried it and its not working as intended. I created a text box the width of the page, typed some text and center justified it. When I adjust the size of the browser window it of course remains centre justified but it doesn't stay in the center of the scree as the window width changes. Did I not understand the 100% width part correctly?
To be clear, I understand how to do this is CSS but there must be some way to do it in muse so you don't have to manually go back and edit the html after each upload.

"open browser window" size

I am updating a site that uses pop-ups for definitions
throughout the site. This is a medical site, so the pop-up
definitions are essential. The site was built before pop-up
blockers came onto the scene. I have tried replacing the script
with the "open browser window" action under the tag inspector but
cannot seem to get that to work. I do rely on DW for Java script as
it is not my strong suit. I cannot find a way to have small windows
open with DW - and avoid pop-up blockers. Does anyone have a
solution?
Thank you!

> blocker doesn't even sound - only a new page saying
"page cannot be found"
Then this is not the pop-up blocker at work. This means that
your path to
the file is wrong.
> I will search for some updated Java
Then you won't find it - it's javascript not Java.

How to create an MenuBar that stays at the top of the browser windows?

We are trying to develop a screen in WDA. It has a menu (UI element MenuBar) at the top. Based on the menu selection it calls a WDA to display below the menu. The requirement is to have the menu bar be stationary. The bottom container (TransparentContainer) with the WDA object is allowed to scroll, but the menu on top should not move. The scrolling should be dynamic based on the browser window. The bottom WDA can have more data then can fit on the screen.
How can we make the menu stationary and the called WDA scrollable? The scroll bars should automatically update due to different browser window sizes.

Hi,
Thanks for your response. Our system is functioning on SAP Ver. 7.00, Service Pack 16. I do not know when or if we will be getting the upgrade to 7.01 or 7.02.
As far as separating the menu and the actual view, each menu selection leads to the loading of a different WDA view inside the TransparentContainer by dynamically linking the ViewContainerUIElement to different WDA views. The trouble here is that when the View becomes too large, we will have to scroll off to the right or down to see additional content. This results in the menu not being accessible unless we scroll back. The requirement is to have the menu stay at the top of the page no matter how the user scrolls through the secondary view container below the MenuBar element.
So far our best solution was to place an arbitrary pixel size to the TransparentContainer of the view, generating in-window scroll bars for the menu-controlled view. The MenuBar always stays visible because it is on top of the scrollable container. However, with varying screen sizes, set-pixel-size is not an ideal solution. I am hoping that there is a more elegant solution than set pixel size since % does not work with height size setting.
Are there any ways to achieve this via 7.00 layout settings? Or perhaps a method to detect browser window size? Any ideas are greatly appreciated.

Inconsistent Replay Window Size

1. We have published a Captivate movie (powerpoints + audio)
using a window size of 800x600.
2. To load it on our LMS, I've been told I have to use the
FLASH (SWF) output file along with the AICC option turned on.
3. Most are able to watch it fine but we've got about 12
people complaining that the window that comes up to play it is too
small. Over 500 are NOT having the problem so it's a VERY small
number but enough that it's an issue that needs to be addressed.
4. I have looked at a screenshot of this problem and it
appears that the flash file window is cropping 10% of the screen
off the right and cropping 10% of the screen off the bottom.
5. We all use the same operating system (Windows XP) and
Internet Explorer version.
Any thoughts on what could be causing this and how to fix
it??

Hi Dew_South2002,
Have you confirmed that each user has the same monitor
resolution settings? Also, if the user's monitor setting is 800 x
600 a small portion of the screen might be cut off due to the size
of the "window" created by the LMS. Because a browser window also
includes the Top of the page, about 20 pixels gets clipped from the
overall browser window size so that the page title can display.
Toolbars can also take away about 20 pixels.
I guess I would approach it by going to a good monitor and
writing down the resolution and noting if any toolbars are present.
Then go to an offending machine and do the same and compare the
notes. Just a thought.

How do I make a image stay at a certain point on a browser window?

So, I'm having this problem where the image I want to stay at a certain location based on my browser windows size (Not to be confused with "Persistent" images that float over all other content) The image in question is my lo
When I view the browser in a regular window size, it looks fine, I then maximize the browser window (The screen I am on is a 23" with a 1920x1080 resolution") and the image stays put versus adjusting it's location based on the new window size... It looks crazy odd on a full screened wide-screen monitor, especially with the logo now appears to be in the center of my navigation bar and no longer properly aligned with my content. A good example of the navigation I am using and of the effect I am trying to achieve is on this website. http://www.bungie.net
Notice how the logo, navigation icon and the search/sign in stay in the same location to the user based on the size of the browser window, How do I achieve this?
EDIT: Ah, I almost forgot, when I preview my site, the background image/footer stop about midway of the browser height in full screen, and it leaves a ugly blank space at the bottom of my page, how does one go about fixing this as well? The background is set to fill the browser window yet it doesn't???

Try pinning the object to the browser window - http://tv.adobe.com/watch/muse-feature-tour/muse-pin-objects-to-the-browser-window/.
Regarding your second issue, make sure you have your footer items marked as Footer and that you have Sticky Footer enabled in Page Properties - http://tv.adobe.com/watch/muse-feature-tour/muse-define-headers-and-footers/.
Thanks,

Unable to center webpage in browser window!!!

Hi! I have looked for and tried almost everything to center my webpage in the browser window yet it doesn't work!
this is the page: www.claudechalhoub.com. I want the page to be centered regardless of the browser window size!
I have included the following code in my html:
<style type="text/css">
body {
text-align:center; /*For IE6*/
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
min-width:770px;
background-image: url(pictures/lastimage.jpg);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-color: #000;
font-family: "Palatino Linotype", "Book Antiqua", Palatino, serif;
color:#FFF;
font-style: normal;
#wrapper {
width: 770px;
margin:0 auto;
text-align: left;
</style>
And then I've included:
<body>
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="ap_text"> "The beauty of Claude Chalhoub's music is that it doesnt sound "new" at all. It sounds familiar, even if you have never listened to Arabic music (or classical music) at all. As if it had always been there. It's as natural as breathing. And that's what great art is all about – making the difficult seem easy."</div>
</div>
</body>
I can not figure out what is wrong for it not to work!
Any guidance???

If you still insist you want to have your image within the background image, you could just change your 'body' css tag as follows:
body {
text-align:center; /*For IE6*/
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
min-width:770px; /*minimum fixed width to suit majority of smallest browser widths*/
background-image: url(pictures/lastimage.jpg);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-color: #000;
font-family: "Palatino Linotype", "Book Antiqua", Palatino, serif;
color:#FFF;
font-style: normal;
background-position: center top;
Center positions is horizontally and top positions it vertically.
