HTML - Center A Page In A Browser Window
Hello;
I am a graphic designer that codes pages quick and dirty entirely with tables. The one I am currently working on needs to be centered in all browser windows at all sizes. I understand that this shouldn't be hard, however everything that I have tried so far hasn't worked. My thoughts are that since it is built entirely in tables (with a java search tool) that I need to make a centered container and place the entire page inside of it. I have tried a few codes I've pulled from other forums with no luck temporary url (and I know the code is dirty) www.showcasepublishing.com/myoutandabout Thanks in advance Similar TutorialsHello, I want to open a html page in a same browser window with fullscreen mode. I tried following code: window.open("hello.html","_self","fullscreen,scrollbars") However if I use _self, I did not get page in fullscreen mode. Any help is really appreciated. Regards, John I have a terrible problem how to make this page resize whatever the resolution of the browser. I've already did liquid layout via percent but the height doesn't do it. They want the content to be scalable in whatever browser dimensions they want. Kindly help me. Thanks. Here is the html: Code: <!DOCTYPE html>

Hi im aware how to fit the width of a page so it fills the browser window but im curious on how to set the height of the page? the width works perfectly and just the height im stuck with Hello I'm new to HTML Now straight to the point : I have a web page that looks too big when screen resolution is 1024x786 , but on the other pc (screen resolution 1280x1024 ) the same page looks too small and I have white spaces around it. I want my whole page with it's elements adapt to the browser window size and fit exactly to it ( I don't want to see that scrolling thing on the right or bottom ). You could just give me the link of the function/code I have to use. Here is my code if that helps. Code: <html>
<title>AiiT</title>
<body background="b.png" style="background-repeat:no-repeat; background-position:center center; width: 1024px;height:768px;">
<div style="background-image: url('1.png'); width:764px; height:557px; position: absolute;
top: 12%;
left: 50%;
margin-left: -382px; text-align:center;
"><div style="background-image: url('Tr.png'); background-repeat:no-repeat; position: relative; left:30px; top:30px;"><img src="Her.png" border="0" style="margin-top:10px;"><br><br>
<a href="en/"><img src="an.png" border="0"></a> <a href="lt/"><img src="li.png" border="0"></a><br><br><img src="Logo.png" border=0"></div></div>
</body>

Help appreciated. hello, I'm an HTML novice who designed/maintains my own site without any expertise at all. One problem I can't seem to figure out: When the browser window is sized more narrowly than the content on the page, the table sections get shoved down underneath one another. Most sites I see don't do that -- when the browser window narrows, the site content stays in place. Any insight about what my error is? You can check out the problem at www.adamgwon.com. Thanks much. I want my link to open into a new window with no scrollbar or status bar and be 100% of the screen width and 66% of the screen height. Is there a way to do this? thanks in advance. hello I wanted to make a pop up window for a link: so i put this btw <head> and </head> Code: <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
var win=null;
onerror = stopError;
function stopError(){
return true;
}
function o1281309901(){
myleft=(screen.width)?(screen.width-874)/2:100;mytop=(screen.height)?(screen.height-622)/2:100;
settings="width=874,height=622,top=" + mytop + ",left=" + myleft + ",scrollbars=no,location=no,directories=no,status=no,menubar=no,toolbar=no,resizable=no,dependent=no";
win=window.open("http://www.christianwalser.com/videoplayer","",settings);
win.focus();
}
// -->
</script>
and then this btw <body> and </body> for the link to open the pop up: Code: <a href="javascript:o1281309901();">LINK It works fine with IE but not with other browser like Safari and FF: --> Its then resizable and the height and wheight arent correct anymore Thank you very much for your help Hi all, I am wondering if anyone know how to have a link, once clicked, open a popup window WHILE also changing the page in the existing window. I know how to code them separately, but I do not know how to combine the two actions. HTML Code: <A HREF="javascript:popUp('popup.html')">link name</A>
My site currently uses the above code to open popup windows. Any help would be much appreciated, David Below are the two sites I will use to explain my problem. For reference, I used Mozilla Firefox 3.08 and Google Chrome 1.0.154.53 in my tests. Example 1: http://www.irishbyname.com/example1.htm Example 2: http://www.irishbyname.com/example2.htm When browsing the site in a browser other than Internet Explorer, example 1 and example 2 center to different locations on the page. In example 1, I set the height of the content area to be 200 px tall. In example 2, I set the height of the content area to be 500 px tall. When I have example 1 open in one tab and example 2 open in another, I can alternate between the two tabs and see a visual difference in alignment. The HTML code on both pages is exactly identical with the exception of the height of the content area. Can anyone tell me why the horizontal page center changes based on the height of the page? Can anyone tell me how to change my HTML to make certain the page centers correctly no matter how tall the page is? Thanks for your help in advance. i got a problem i cant figure out. in dreamweaver when i add the behavior "open new browser window" to a link that is not external....but like a small pop up page.....when the user clicks on the link, the window opens, but the main window resets....meaning if the link was at the bottom of the page and the user scrolled down to get there....they then have to rescroll on the page to get back to the bottom. how can i get the new window to open without changing the view of the main page. many thanks! Hi: I would like to maximize a browser window after a page is loaded: I believe the command would be something like: <body onload="window.maximize" > Would someone care to correct or adjust or revamp the above statement please ? Thanks Mel Smith (still wandering about in the html wilderness) Suppose a user types the url of a website in their browser, so that the script http://url/index.htm is displayed in the browser. In other words, the user is not opening the page via a link or whatever, they are just typing in your url. In that situation, what (if anything) can you put in that script itself that gives the user's browser window a name that can be referred to later. The reasons why I want to do this are complicated, but in a nutshell this first window will become the parent window of other windows that open up later via links within the page, and script within those windows will have to refer to it by a name. Alternatively, is there some standard name that your browser window automatically recieves when you open up a website, like "parent" or something, that allows you to refer to it? How can I make the browser window that my site is in automatically have specific height/width dimensions? Making toolbar and scrollbar go away would also be nice. Similar to how most pop-up windows are a fixed size, I was curious as to how I could fix the size of a browsing window (particularly the width) of a page. Vertical scrolling isn't as important, but I would like my index page as well as the pages within the Iframe in the index page to remain a certain width so viewers would only have to scroll vertically to view the entire content of the html document. I have tried "stealing" the coding used in pop-up windows, trying it in both the head and body of the code but to no avail. I have searched for countless hours on the 'net looking for a tutorial that gives the code for this and have had zero luck. (I know it must be possible.) Any and all help/input is greatly appreciated! Thanks so much in advance, Dereck This is for a flash site but I think it needs to be coded in the html page. My Flash swf size is approximately 1000x700. If the browser size is smaller than this the site needs to scale down but if it is larger I don't want it to scale. Just like this http://www.milesaldridge.com/. I've tried publishing the Flash settings at ScaleDefault(Show All) which scales it but I need to stop the scaling upwards at 1000x700. I'd have thought that I could say in the html if (width<1024){scale;} and if(height<700){scale;}. But it's not working. Should it all be done in the html and if so how? Hello, hopefully you can help me. I have the following code, which opens a new internet browser window: <form> <p align="center"><b></b> <select id="setit" style="color: #0000FF" size="1" name="test"> <option value="">Please Select</option> <option value="http://www.nu.nl">nu</option> <option value="http://www.telegraaf.nl">telegraaf</option> <option value="http://www.google.com">Google</option></select> <input type="button" value="Go" onclick="window.open(setit.options[setit.selectedIndex].value)"> </p></form> What do I need to change so the onclick opens the link in the same internet browser window instead of opening a new one? Many thanks, Ralfie I am new to HTML coding. I am trying to create a form, which, automatically submits the form contents and finally automatically close the browser window. But I am not able to get the self form submissions and self window closing. The code that I have written is found below. Kindly advice on how to get it working. Thanks in advance. <html> <body> </form> <p><b>This form submits an HTTP POST request to url '/forms_example/post'</b></p> <form name="form1" form method="POST" action="http://localhost/forms_example/post"> <table> <tr> </tr><tr><td>Name</td><td><input type="Text" name="name" VALUE="roger"></td></tr> <tr><td>Address</td><td><input type="Text" name="address" VALUE="smith"></td></tr> <tr><td>Phone</td><td><input type="Text" name="phone" VALUE="25714988"></td></tr> <tr><td>E-Mail</td><td><input type="Text" name="email" VALUE="roger.smithatgmail.com"></td></tr> <tr><td><input type="Submit" VALUE="submit" > </td></tr> </table> </form> </script> function GO(){ setTimeout("subForm()",0) } function subForm(){ document.form1.submit() } t = null; function closeMe(){ t = setTimeout("self.close()",2000); } </script> </body onload="GO()";"closeMe()"> </html> My website pops up a browser window that cannot be resized. Occassionally though, the window's content exceeds its size. Is it possible to implement a scrollbar/scrollpane inside the window using just html? Cheers, James How can I get a browser window to open maximized regardless of screen size, screen res, or browser type/version? Thanks... |
