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.

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.

Additional blank browser window appears when testing a Web Dynpro app.

When I run a Web Dynpro Application, I always get a second blank browser window opening at the same time as the application. This is not happening for everyone here though. I guess it's a browser setting but I haven't been able to track it down and it's very annoying having this thing pop up every time.
Any idea how I can get rid of it?
thanks,
Malcolm.

Hi Enrique,
suspend and resume plugs don't work on Portal, this is done by Portal Navigation. You can suspend the application by setting the Suspensibility property, but not use the plugs. See here: [Suspend and Resume Plugs|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwce10/helpdata/en/44/d958673ef05f4de10000000a11466f/frameset.htm]

Turning off headers and footers when printing a web page.

Is it possible to turn off (or reduce the size of) the
default header and footer
when printing a web page? I am using Internet Explorer 6.0.2
900, and only want
it to work with my computer and a specific printer.
I am using the directive @page normal { size : portrait;
margin : 0;} in a CSS
stylesheet specified as media="print".

Of course, but It's not a problem with logical inches per se.
The
logical inch is just another way of looking at what is meant
by the
screen dpi value. Scaling problems, with different dpi
settings, has
always been a Windows problem and results from the way that
the OS
handles scaling. Fonts scale perfectly. Actual windows, and
other
containers, don't. This is a problem programmers have
grappled with
since the first Windows OS. Vista is the first OS to try to
tackle this
problem.
>Thus, percentages or ems work best when cross-platform
compatibility is
>desired."
And that is because the users screen dpi, and hence logical
inches, are
totally irrelevant when specifying ems and percentages.
Ems and percentage equate to a number of pixels, not inches.
The sole purpose of screen dpi setting is to convert anything
sized in
physical inches into a number of screen pixels. That is the
_only_
purpose of screen dpi. It's a very simple algorithm.
(physical) inches x screen dpi value = number of pixels
How do _you_ think a font sized in points (inches) gets
translated to a
specific number of pixels on screen. I'd be interested in
your answer.
For the screen a conversion from physical inches to pixels is
always
necessary because, as you say, pixels are the unit of screen
measurement
but they are not just a "standard" measurement, they are the
only
consistent measurement. It's not the users program that
creates pixels
on screen but the Operating System. The program requests the
OS to
create a given font at a given size and the requested size
_must_ be in
pixels. Windows can't _directly_ create a screen font that's
specified
in points (inches) because it has no notion of what a
physical inch is
on screen. It does know what a logical inch is because the a
logical
inch is defined by the screen dpi value. That's what the
screen dpi
value is for. If a browser programmer wants to bypass the
variability of
screen dpi on different computers then they ignore dpi values
and work
directly in pixels i.e. in ems or percentage. When ems and
percentages
are specified one is dealing only in pixels.

Of course it makes more sense to set font size specifically
in pixels
because that's the only unit the OS can use to put something
on screen.
I can't see where you get the idea that either Michael Bowers
or I have
said that there is a unit "defined as 1/72 of a logical
inch". Every
Windows program written takes it that there are 72 points to
a
_physical_ inch.

You are implying I've said things which I haven't. I have
never, at any
time, said one should use points or inches in designing web
pages. You
seem to have missed the point that what I am doing is
explaining why you
see the results you do on screen when those unit are used.
Somewhat more
informed than "Points are only for print because I don't know
what they
mean on screen, so they must be meaningless".
>As Eric Meyer says on page 110 of "Cascading Style
Sheets: The
>Definitive Guide" (2nd Edition), "points can be a very
difficult
>measurement to use in document design."
And again, I've never advocated using them in page design. A
close
reading, however, from page 83 onwards shows that Eric Meyer
has an
imperfect notion of the meaning of screen dpi. Heresy!! He's
hardly
alone, which is why I did a web site.
>
>That's why I recommend leaving points for use in print
style sheets.
>However, if you enjoy making life difficult for yourself
by using

so.
Once again, I have never advocated that. You are setting up a
straw man
to knock down. You can do better than that.

Restart your Mac and immediately hold down the Shift key when you hear the startup chime to boot into Safe Mode. Keep holding the Shift key until you see a progress bar towards the bottom of the screen. You can let go of the Shift key at that point.
OS X asks you to log in (you will get this screen on a Safe Mode boot even if your Mac is set to automatically log in). Let the Mac finish booting to the desktop and then restart normally. This will clear Font Book's database and the cache files of the user account you logged into in Safe Mode.
Next, close all running applications. From an administrator account, open the Terminal app and enter the following command. You can also copy/paste it from here into the Terminal window:
sudo atsutil databases -remove
Terminal will then ask for your admin password. As you type, it will not show anything, so be sure to enter it correctly.
This removes all font cache files. Both for the system and the current user font cache files. After running the command, close Terminal and immediately restart your Mac.

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.

External displays - browser window position when disconnected display

I'm using a laptop, connecting one or two external displays, - one using the HDMI port, second using an USB "dock station" (Toshiba standalone). Second screen normally to the right, third screen (usb) above the laptop screen.
Often when I have disconnected the USB external display, my Firefox browser window are still "on the third display" - position as if this display was still active.
Even if I quit Firefox and restarts ( or even restarts windows ) the same position window is retained. The only way to fix it (when the USB connected display is not available), is to change the window position of the second (HDMI) display to cover the area of the USB one, then move Firefox window to my main laptop display, and then reposition the second screen back to the normal.
Normally, I expect applications to automatically reposition the windows to the available display(s) under the conditions that an extra display is removed. However, this seems not to happen with Firefox. It's inconvinient, but possible to fix with the second screen available, but I'm lost when I am not able to connect an external display ...
Is there any solution to this? Is it possible to change (reset) window positions directly in RegEdit ??

Dear varkgirl:
Thank you very much for your help and valuable suggestion.
I've tried your suggestion but ran into some problems. The links I am trying to open in another window are actually PDF files that the viewer can download from my website.
Since I was having problems I decided to try something else. After publishing the website to my desktop I then opened the pages where the links are in Dreamweaver. The layout view is great and displayed the image just the way it appears on the browser's window. I first selected the "link button" to the file and then in the inspector windows (bottom of the page) I chose under target the "_blank" option. This tells the software that the linked page or file is to be opened in a new blank browser window. I then saved the page (re-saved it over the existing file) to incorporate the changes. After this I proceeded to navigate through the website and everything works great.
Thank you for your help and suggestions. I just thought I would post this here in case it may be of help to you as well as others.
Best regards,
Joseph Chamberlain

When loading ANY web page, it take firefox 3sec to load a blank page. No matter what website I try to load, it just loads a blank page

When loading ANY web page, it take firefox 3sec to load a blank page. I have tried everything, starting firefox in safe mode and dissabling all add ons, turning 6v on and off, turnig proxy on and off, reinstalling firefox, restarting my computer, and reinstalling drivers. I can use another browser to surf the internet but finding one that is as capable to firefox isn't easy.
ps. Firefox did start at one point and then just stoped.
I use Linux Ubuntu 11.04 single boot

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":

There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

When I open an existing document it always open too small, I resize it but next time I open it it's small again! Please help! I used to be able to resize them then they stayed that size until I resized it no matter how many times I opened and closed it before upgrading to 3.0!!!!

Rainbow wheel when scrolling a web page

Strangely every '''second time''' that I want scrolling a web page, the arrow become unresponsive for few second and the rainbow wheel appear sometime for more the 1 mn !
This happen mostly on Google web page.
I clear already firefox cache but it didn't help.
iMac 3.06GHz IC2D OS X 10.6.8 / Firefox 8.0.1

Yes, that's what I did in the first place.
Instead of MOUSE_UP I used KEY_DOWN and the results came both: the stage and the HTMLLoader. That's why I'm confused. I'm pretty sure the results are same if I use MOUSE_UP too, isn't it?
And my question is, where is the focus when scrolling a web page loaded with HTMLLoader WITH ARROW KEYS. Not using a mouse, and I don't know how to scroll with a mouse.

When Printing a web page from Firefox. The fonts are timy and all spacing is incorrect.

Prior to beta 4.12, the pages printed correctly. Now, the fonts are small and the text spacing is incorrect. All text has at least one extra space between the letters.
This happens on ALL sites when printing a web page.
I tried printing the same page in Internet Explorer and it prints correctly.

I can only open one Firefox browser window. When I click the firefox icon from desktop or taskbar to open up another browser window it does not open. I am ablt to open up new tabs within the one window.

Have you tried: click Firefox button > New Tab > New Window '''''OR''''' CTRL+N '''''OR''''' File > New Window (if using the Menu Bar)
Once open, Firefox locks the Profile that is in use and you can not open another window with that Firefox version and Profile combination using the Windows Desktop icon or the Windows Programs list.

when I open igoogle or any other website, a mini blank page (about a third of the full screen) appears for a sec then the full page complete with info appears. The blank page displays only mozilla firefox, the next full size shows the complete web site, e.g. google, yahoo, hotmail, etc. The lap top does not do this only the desk computer. This has only started recently. We did up grade our dsl speed but they ATT has assured us that the problem rests with the browser.
