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

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.

My new Firefox ver 29 always starts maximized how do i set the window size and not maximized?

I had reinstall my Windows 7 (win 7 pro 64bit)
so i had to reinstall firefox as well, installed ver 27 and updated it to version 29
now when i start firefox it will start maximized and i want to set the window size when it starts,
why the size of the window will not change and it will start maximized all the time?

# In Firefox, type ''about:support'' into the address bar and press Enter.
# Click the Show Folder button. A Windows Explorer window opens.
# Right-click the Firefox taskbar icon and choose either Close All Windows or Close Window.
# In the Windows Explorer window that opened earlier, delete the ''localstore.rdf'' file.
# If you have Firefox pinned to the taskbar, right-click the taskbar icon, then right-click the Firefox icon in the menu that pops up and choose Properties.
#* If you have a desktop shortcut, simply right-click it and choose Properties.
# Click the Shortcut tab in the Properties window.
# Make sure Run is set to "Normal window".

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.

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.

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

How do I set the window size of a course in SumTotal (LMS)

I recently created an AICC course using Captivate 5.5 for a client using SumTotal as their LMS. When the client loads the course, the course launchs in a window that is smaller than the course itself; the user then has to adjust the window size to view the entire course. I have read on various posts that this cannot be controlled by myself through the .htm file settings, and that this has to be set within the LMS.
So my question is: Where and how does the client set the course window size within SumTotal? Does anyone know?!
thanks

No, edit the html files that come with Captivate. Either hand edit the
html file that is produced every time you publish, or locate the files
in the Captivate 5 directory and customise them to suite your needs.

Is it possible to pre-set firefox window size?

under windows, one can add a short java script to the line that opens firefox to pre-set window size.

Once you set the size of the window in Firefox it should open that size. No need for scripts. Issues with Firefox should be directed to that vendor.

Set finder window size default

How can I set the default finder window size? I've got a new iMac and the finder window always opens small. I want it a lot bigger. Interestingly, on my wife's old iMAc and my MBA (both running OS X 10.8.3, same as new iMac) the finder windows open to a much bigger size.

it seems Finder opens to Applications. Sometimes the folder is the same size as the as the last one I closed. Other times it is tiny. I can't seem to spy a pattern.

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 to set browser window title from FPM ?

How do I set brwoser window title at runtime in FPM ?
Using IDR area objetc I can set only apllication are(ident area) title, not the browser window title. Browser window title is set statically from iView name of in portal, and PFCG contect if in NWBC client.
But in my case, I want to set it at runtime, for eg. in case of Purchase Order window, I want to set it as 'Purchase Order:<PO number>
Is there any API to set this?
Thanks again,
Hari

When you call it as external window you may pass the title. other than that i am afraid you are left with no choice.

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.

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).
Regards,
Andrew
