          Hello everyone,
 
Does anyone know how to force IE to open using a specific window size, or is there a utility that can control this?
 
I run my desktop at 1600x1200, and I do a great deal of web design. I would like to be able to test web pages at specific resolutions without having to reset my desktop just to do it.
 
Thanks for any information

Make a page with links that call the following javascript. We use this on our 404 page to open a new window for users looking for old content that generates a 404 error:
 
<SCRIPT language="javascript">
window.open(" http://www.weslow.net/webskin/1/toc.asp","","copyhistory=1,location=1,toolbar=1,menubar=1,scrollbars=1,resizable=1,width=700,height=480");
</SCRIPT>
 
Of course, replace with your own URL. Primarily what you would want to change is, of course, the width and height. I would set those to various resolutions and just make a page with links that called all of these one by one.

OP
                                                    Thanks for the suggestion; I will use that
                                                
                                            
                                                    LOL, might be an idea if the guy who made the prog actually used it on his site - the text is fixed size & too small so IE's View->Text Size function doesn't have any effect on it & if you try viewing the page in NS 6.2.x it does enlarge but the formatting's flubbed with the menu overlapping the main text!
