i know how to change the window size through javascript but i was wondering if it possible to make it auto fit so if something expands so does the window.

i'm pretty sure you can use javascript to check the value of the width/height properties of objects. set up a function that checks the value of the width and the resizes the window appropriately.

i have no idea about the exact syntax, but there's one way you could do it...

Not real sure what you're wanting the window to autofit to, but I use it to autofit pictures. Here's the code I use.

(This isn't my code, I just found it. It didn't have any dev. info, so don't get mad that I didn't include it)



//Function to open picture in new windows

function OpenImage(img){

  foto1= new Image();

  foto1.src=(img);

  Controlla(img);

}

function Controlla(img){

  if((foto1.width!=0)&&(foto1.height!=0)){

    viewFoto(img);

  }

  else{

    funzione="Controlla('"+img+"')";

    intervallo=setTimeout(funzione,20);

  }

}

function viewFoto(img){

  largh=foto1.width+20;

  altez=foto1.height+20;

  stringa="width="+largh+",height="+altez;

  finestra=window.open("/includes/showpicture.asp?img="+img,"",stringa);

}

I call it just like any other javascript:



<a href="javascript:OpenImage('whatever you want in here')">

And here's the code for the page to display pictures.



<html>

<!--#include virtual="/includes/skin_file.asp" -->

<body onClick="self.close()" bgcolor="<% = strBgColor %>"
topmargin="10" bottommargin="10" leftmargin="10" rightmargin="10">

<%

ShowPic = Request.Querystring("img")

ShowPic = Replace(ShowPic, " ", "%20")

Response.Write "<img src=" & ShowPic & " border='0'
style='border: 1px solid rgb(128,128,128);' alt='Click Anywhere To
Close Window'><br />"

%>

</body>

</html>

This works really well for me. Hopefully it helps you out.
