In FP 2003, picture disappears when resizing to %. What's up?

[Guest]

Trying to get a picture (jpeg) to resize to a percentage size that it will
change as the browser window is resized. Currently, size is specified in
pixels. When trying to change this size to a percentage in Picture
Properties, when I click on OK, the picture disappears from the page. What's
up with this? Is this a bug? If not, what am I doing wrong? If it is, is
there a workaround? Thanks!!

Change it in Code / HTML view.

You won't like the results if you get it to work, since a browser window can be resized to a zillion proportions the image will be distorted.

Don't bother! The results will be awful!!!

Not if done correctly.

How would you adjust for an oddly sized browser viewport though? I remember your previous example which worked but would display disproportionate results how would you allow for that?

The best way would be to monitor the view port size and then adjust accordingly.

I have a script "somewhere "I started but never finished. I might dig it out and play with it some
day.

The example I showed a few days ago was one I put together some time ago just to prove it could be
done.
Actually I had forgotten it was still "out there" until I saw the post the other day.

Also you could make a script that maintains the "Aspect ratio" ( hmm just thought of that )
Rats, and I was just getting into a Visual Studio project I've been working on.

Oh Well.

It would be interesting to see how it's done. Just beginning to mess with script stuff...still a noob in that respect.

No hurry here..just like to see how..whenever.

tnx,
