Hi,

I wonder if someone can tell me how, if it is possible, to set your
FrontPage settings so that backgrond pictures, watermarks, will adjust
themselves automatically acording to each PC's screan size / resolution.

really need this for the entire web-page, not just the background

regards
EB
 
Can't be done. Background pictures will either tile (repeat) or cut off
to fit the container they are in.
You can use CSS to prevent tiling, but you cannot stretch a background
image.

Also the screen's size has nothing to do with the appearance of a web
page. The screen's resolution merely sets the maximum size for the
browser portal. Changing the background (or any other) image to suit
the screen size or resolution will not help those users with 1600x1200
resolution screens who only open the browser to 800x600.

As far as the page content goes - use tables or other containers
(<divs>) set to percentage widths of the browser portal to lay out the
page. This will automatically adjust to the browser portal width, but
the page layout may change. Or use a fixed width layout which (more or
less) fixes the layout, but may give wide margins on wide browsers.
 
Thank you
