want oversize image to show up full size

B

Beemer Biker

I have a jpeg 600 x 2100 that i am showing in a "full window".

After after about 2 seconds (and only if the user click on the screen) the
explorer "zoom" control appears.

I would like the picture to show up in that zoomed mode where the user only
needs to scroll the image down to see the rest of it. I do not want explorer
(fp2003?) to try to fit everything on the screen.

I do not see any way to do this in FP2003, probably requires some special
html or script command?

...thanks..

Also, any reference books for stuff like this? I bought fp2003 reference
but that is not same as html or script.

Add the following to the head section of your page.

<meta HTTP-EQUIV="imagetoolbar" CONTENT="no">

This is not a FP related issue nor a HTML issue, it is a feature of the IE browser

If you put the jpeg on an HTML page, IE won't try to fit it to the screen,
but will add scrollbars instead.

Those are massive dimensions for an image on a web page, though.

Thanks, both Patty & Thomas. I dropped the image on an html page as I
assume that is more robust than using a specific explorer property. The
image was a "snagit" screen copy using the "auto scroll" of a full size ebay
web page that I wanted to save. I want to have a permanent record of the
item that was sold and ebay eventually removes the auction images after 90
days or less. I am unsure of the legality of this since it looks exactly
like their copyrighted page but I am not selling anything and my page is
clearly for satire. Since ebay pages routinely show up in google archives I
dont see anything wrong with saving the image myself.
