My client wants to have some text scale appropriately depending on the
resolution of the screen. This is very much like the way that flash works in
that as the area being displayed gets bigger, the font gets bigger,
smaller - it gets smaller. Trying to write flash is turning out to have some
problems and it sorta works (I found a library by ComponentOne which does
most of the stuff but not everything.)
One thing to make it a bit easier is that this app runs 99.9% of the time
full screen so I could make the stuff dependent on screen resolution through
JavaScript but I'm looking for a better way of doing it.
Can anybody give suggestions on how to do this without flash? I'm really at
a loss.
TIA - Jeffrey.

Use % for your table sizes... and use relative CSS font sizes.

you can use clientscript (not too hard, depending on the effect desired),
but the easiest is an image of the text. just scale (set width and height)
the image to the screen size.

When you say an image of the text what do you mean? This is text that needs
to change frequently by the user so it needs to be something that we can
automate.

I resize a control in a Form wth Scale mode set to vbInches. However, the

Scale mode is set to vbInchs, then the control should have the same size

I would like to automatically resize a window to its content. I was thinking
of using an outer table to detect the size of my content, then use
window.resizeTo( ).
The problem is I'm not sure how I can determine the size of what I think is
referred to as the 'chrome' - the window borders, toolbars, etc.
Is there a way to determine the height and width of the chrome so that I can
supply the correct parameters to the resizeTo method?

Hi,
i have seen in many web sites, the size of pages are automatically
resized according to screen resolution.
generally we create web layout for 800x600 but if we view it in1024x768
then the page open have wide space on right.
Is there any kind of coding to overcome this situation.like when we
wiew the page created in 800x600 in 1024x768 resol. then it
atomatically resized to full screen without having any scroll on
