pop-up that scales to content

[loadspeed]

hi there

i am not sure if it's late at night, or that i am being thick,
or that i am being thick and it's late at night...

but i am trying to create a pop-up that scales to it's content
i.e. say i have several different sized images opening into a pop-up,
but they are using one pop-up template, i want that pop-up to resize to
each respective image size.

hmmm... just working out if i can say the word pop-up anymore... no i
think that's about it.

i'd be interested if any solutions pop-up. ha

ok i'll go now

thanks in advance

can chew on a site i designed so if this is a really obvious, dumb
question then i apologise in advance)

In the window.open command you can specify attributes for the size on
the new window you are creating.

DevGuru has a good description of the attributes you can assign and how
to use them:

Every browser sets margin on document root element. There is an example
on how to work this out at the end of this section

http://developer-test.mozilla.org/en...ing_privileges

MSIE 5+ has a {margin: 15px 10px;} margin on body while Netscape 6+,
Mozilla 1.x and Firefox 1.x have an 8px margin on the body. Recently,
Opera 8 followed Firefox 1.x on this.

The site said to use Internet Explorer 5 or better... so I switched to
Firefox 1.0.4 :)

LOL - that's how I got into this business in the first place :)

I don't know the answer offhand, and I'm sure others will, but I'm quite
certain there is a way to get the height & width of an image - then you
could just generate the popup based on that data.
