website/html guru help please!!
 
Hello there,
When you go to my little site and have a resolution as low as 800 by 600 the top picture (frame) on my site does not fit......anyone tell me how to fix this? I use dreamweaver but can follow most instructions :)

the site is http://www.theriverkelvin.co.uk

make the image less than 800 width and either increase the row height in the frameset or decrease the image height too, don't forget to click the refresh button on the properties toolbar in Dreamweaver if you do change the width/height or it'll try and keep the original settings.

Your image is 900 x 100 pixels. Try this instead:

The browser width in 800 x 600 is not 800 pixels, it's 79something.

lol 79something. There's nothing like accuracy ;)

In most mozila based browsers you are safe with 794 but I'd stick to something like 790 to be on the safe side.

Right...um so what exactly do I do? Will i use that picture instead of the one ive got and that will sort the problem? The background colour is different?

It's more like 785 in IE too because it always displays the scrollbar on the right.

Um .. no it doesn't, well ok it does if you want your document to conform to W3C standards, but as an example, http://www.nicholasclegg.co.uk/mortgages.html (view it in 1024x768+)

His pic is in a frame, so as long as SCROLLBAR=0 or the frame is larger than the image, there will be no scroll bar ;)

That's surely scrolling="no" (or "auto" if the content actually fits in the frame)

"scrollbars=0" works for me!

And if you add "width=100%" too then the image will stretch or shrink to fit whatever is surrounding it.

"scrollbars" as far as I know is not a valid HTML 4+ tag.

I'm not familliar with FrontPage 4.0 but look to see if there is a way to 'edit raw' the top frame. Then insert the text width="100%" exactly as below.

Code:
<html>

<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">
<meta name="GENERATOR" content="Microsoft FrontPage 4.0">
<meta name="ProgId" content="FrontPage.Editor.Document">
<title></title>
<base target="contents">
</head>

<body bgcolor="#99CC00" link="#008000" vlink="#008080" alink="#FF0000">

<p align="center"><a href="index.htm" target="_parent"><img border="0" src="images/mainlogo.gif" align="top" width="100%"></a></p>

</body>

</html>
