Picture Gallery auot expands & Printer friendly Pages

[Ed]

Hi All: Using FP03 on Winxppro
My site www.unitedfence.com has photo gallery pages. first question is when
i open any gallery page it opens undersized (vertically) when i click on any
thumb above the page resizes to max fill of page. can i change page so when
it initially opens its maximized? second when i print this page at home
(printer margins set to 1/2") it includes everything ok. but when print at
work (margins set to 3/4") it cust off right edge of page. can i set some
page property to override the printer to set margins at <3/4" when anyone
chooses to print my pages?
Thanks, Ed

There are ways of doing this with JavaScript, but they vary from browser to
browser and and are therefore somewhat complex and quirky.

Also, most visitors hate sites that resize the browser window on them.

I must have mislead you. I dont want to resize browser. If you open my page
with full browser you will notice the bottom links are up about 1". but when
you click onthumb it lowers to base of window. would like to know why it
does not open originally at base of window? Ed

if I'm understanding you correctly, you'll have to make your "full-size"
images a smaller height.
I believe there's a setting in the gallery properties dialog.

The full size images do not change but the frame of the gallery gets bigger
vertically when i click on thumb. I think i'm over engineering page and will
live with it. thanks, ed
