[ILUG-Webdev] Resizing windows

[adam beecher]

Hi Niall,

The PHP vars $w and $h below are the width and height dimensions from
getimagesize(), so swap them out with the dimensions you want. The first
resizeTo is required by IE as a reference for the second resizeTo. To add
whitespace around the image, add it to the JavaScript 'w' and 'h' vars in
the code just after the first resizeTo.

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
 <!--
  var ie, nn;
  if (parseInt(navigator.appVersion.charAt(0)) >= 4) {
   nn = (navigator.appName == "Netscape") ? 1 : 0;
   ie = (navigator.appName.indexOf("Microsoft") != -1) ? 1 : 0;
  }
  if (nn) {
   self.innerWidth = <?=$w?>;
   self.innerHeight = <?=$h?>;
  } else {
   self.resizeTo(100, 100);
   w = (100 - self.document.body.clientWidth) + <?=$w?>;
   h = (100 - self.document.body.clientHeight) + <?=$h?>;
   self.resizeTo(w, h);
  }
 // -->
</script>

HTH,
adam
