hello all

i try to downscale a popup (at a certain point, long after it has been opened) using either the resizeTo() or the resizeBy() - command. In MSIE5x on MacOSX the shrinking results in other sizes then calculated (the downscale stops at some point, leaving the popup as a rectangle of about 300px wide, and 150px height (don't know exactly)). It seems to work properly in other browsers.

code looks like this:
function shrink() {
resizeTo(100,100);
}
...

<body onClick="shrink()">


Anyone any idea? Would be great. Thanks in advance

thanks for your reply Khalid

I checked out the urls you gave me; maybe I didn't find the crucial spot - I find a lot of useful advices on css troubles, but not on JavaScript issues.

I'll keep on searching, and I will post replies to my own question as soon as I have any. Meanwhile, all further advices are highly welcome.

thanks again

Thats precisely what I meant,
since IE5 is in its infancy in the MAC OS environment.Therefore your best bet probably is to go to MS newsgroup site for MAC os,because there are several issues which can not be described surely.

microsoft.public.mac.explorer

true. I did that now, some days ago. Poorly, I get no answer. Maybe I'll just have to give up on it. But I'd regret it. It would **** up my project as a whole, unless I'd ignore the Browser.

Thanks for your help anyway. I'll now open up a new thread, asking for alternative methods and tricks moving / scaling windows.
