How do I make a web page appear as large as screen when uploaded?

Don Schmidt

I don't think Microsoft will ever get away from left justified webpages in
Publisher. Publisher is to get you interested in site creation and then
dangle Front Page in front of you for dessert.

If you use some kind of tiling graphic for a background, I think it will
tile
across the screen no matter the resolution. It gives the illusion that
the page
fills an oversized screen better than it really does (depending on the
pattern).
A publisher page formatted for high resolution will of course take
scrolling to
view on a lower resolution monitor. That is arguably more annoying than
the
alternative. The magic this lad has figured out is old hat to Publisher
users
who struggle daily with kludges and tricks to make things look half
decent. The
real question is when the hell is M$ going to fix Publisher.


No white space on my sites. I thought it was automatically done when using
a
background color

But this one does have white space because the background color is white.

Don,
Yes there is space on the right, BUT NO WHITE SPACE.
The pages are optimised for 1024 x 768, therefore horizontal scrolling
is
inevitable in 800 x 600. They are left justified because some of the
graphics
imposed it.

Your site's width is setup with the Page setup in Publisher and it is
displayed on my 19" monitor (1152x864) with a +/- 1.5" space on the
right
and on my laptop (800x600) requires horizontally scrolling. I don't
think
you can claim page width settings as a secret.

A lot of action on that site; outstanding graphics.

The mistake MS made was adding the webpage feature to Publisher. They'll
never fix it, imo, because the primary function of pub is for dtp, not web
design - same for: Excel and Word which can also be used to generate html

Fine. Then why in gawd's name didn't they make it easy to upgrade to FrontPage?
If the philosophy you enunciate was ever on their minds, then they would be
eager for folks to buy FrontPage and import their Publisher websites. Instead,
it is a mind numbing nightmare to make the transition if you stay in Publisher
long enough to have more than a couple of pages to switch over. I would propose
this is simply a case of M$ having their collective heads up their asses
(surgical installation of a navel lens may be in order). I have suggested for
over five years they are obligated to produce a conversion utility that will get
Publisher webpages into FrontPage, but said suggestion has of course fallen on
deaf ears (or incredibly stupid or stubborn ones).

That is the usual explanation one sees. But it begs the question of why they
let it get so far out of hand. It would have been trivial to use the same html
generation engine technology across all Office applications early on. Instead,
they have created a mess that severely pisses off customers (at least this one,
anyway). Perhaps the problem is traceable to Bill's initial failure to grasp
the importance of the web. After that, there was frantic catching up to do, and
not enough thought to little details like making all Office suite programs web
code compatible. Just speculation, but for sure somebody had their head firmly
implanted where it should not have been.

imo they should not have included the feature in Pub at all, if it were my
product I'd try to make it the best darn DTP on the market period...not have
it try to do a also make webs. Personally, if I were marketing FP I'd have 3
modules; Basic, Intermediate and Advanced...add on upgrade modules
so-to-speak. Basic...50 bucks, Intermediate add another 50 something like
that. FP is a moot point right now though.

I've been messing with EGD and am waiting patiently for EWD beta to be
released..but I have a feeling when it's all said and done and it's on the
market - I ain't gonna be able to afford EGD and EWD. So I'll end up with my
old PS6 and have to buy EWD eventually.

I have a 19" CRT down in the lab running 800x600, and it is very scary on it. I
really like 800x600, but then my vision is not the best.

You can add a body <center> tag in the notepad file and it will center the
page, BUT you will lose the use of the bottommost background layer which can
thus only be used for assigning a background color. This places enormous
limitation on design, particularly when it comes to active components on the
intermediate and top layers.

I used the 3 available layers in the design of the website cited above,
i.e.: I made a background image wide enough to cover 1280 x 1024 and in so
doing avoid "ghosting" of the image in high resolution. Indeed, the location
of the central graphic in this case required left justification of the pages.

Where you can organise the design in such a way that no active component
will be superimposed on a large graphic element, it is then possible to cope
with only two layers and then center the pages.

In any case, it's good practice to specify the page format optimisation.
Many corporations have opted for the 800 x 600 format and just as many leave
their pages left justified.

Sorry to disappoint you if I haven't come up with a panacea for Publisher's
shortcomings. Yet, Publisher allows one to create a decent webpage in far
less time than these "you beauty" in-line editors and, I believe, it does so
with reasonable results. The website quoted above was created in 4 days,
including graphics. It is one of the weirdest design I ever made and I had
fun doing it. My brief for it was: >Karaoke music >night-life >fun >lots of
color >bright neon lights >blinking signs >atmosphere of the 1950s/60s. I
think I fulfilled the brief.

Regrettably, it is not representative of what I normally do. I regard my
daily work on business and corporate web pages as extremely dull and boring
with their imposed color schemes, preservation of company image, and
established logos and style.
