I am making a website. I placed a rather large jpeg in one page. It
displays as expected in Firefox. Yet, it displays much larger in IE6,
making my design unworkable.

Is there any reason that jpegs display larger?

Worse, they print much larger in IE than Firefox.

Any way around this?? Can a page be resized down in the IE print
dialog?? I can't figure out how.

Thanks for any help.
 
Hi Janey,
I think you done good to test on both browsers before real test, to achieve
this you need to Write a JavaScript to both browsers.
Google for it.
Good luck

P.S put in mind the display pixel for diffrent Monitors 600x800, 1024x 768.
 
Hi,
Are you sure that Firefox didn't downsize it to fit the screen?

In Internet Explorer go to Internet Options> Advanced> Multimedia... uncheck
"Enable automatic image resizing" just to make sure that IE isn't resizing
it.

Also (personal opinion) it's often better to make the image the size you
want before uploading it to the server (not *too* large please) than to use
HTML to make a large image fit a smaller space.

Hope this helps,
