Hi Simon

I'm checking on this with my senior colleague and when I have an answer I'll get back to you

**tdw** · 10-May-2005, 05:24 PM

Has anyone found a way to do this yet?

**NormanRouxel** · 10-May-2005, 07:58 PM

I recall posts on this recently. Did you try searching? "Resize popup" would be a good start.

**bangers** · 18-May-2005, 04:53 PM

script for automatic resize

add the script below inbetween the <head></head> of your extended info template (example: Act_ExtendedInfoImageAbove.html):

<script type="text/javascript">
function setSize()
{
db=document.body;
if (db.scrollHeight>db.offsetHeight)
{
H=db.scrollHeight;
W=db.scrollWidth;
}
else
{
H=db.offsetHeight;
W=db.offsetWidth;
}
window.resizeTo(W+30,H+100); // + change numbers to add extra pixels to width(W) and height(H)
self.focus();
}
onload=setSize;
</script>

I also removed the line:
<Actinic:WINDOW WIDTH="" HEIGHT=""/>
which can be found at the top of the template just after the opening <head> tag.

An example of the popup can be found at:

Nice use of my Dynamic Product Images patch. Can I put a link to http://www.boxhedge.com/sws/acatalog...ed-Frame.shtml on my download page?

**bangers** · 18-May-2005, 07:13 PM

No worries Norman, I'd be honoured.
But please could you wait a couple of days until the site is live, pages are functioning properly and the url has changed (so that you don't end up firing people to a redundant URL). I'll let you know when I make the changes

**bangers** · 19-May-2005, 07:51 AM

Just a quickie,
In the script I posted I say:
window.resizeTo(W+30,H+100); // + change numbers to add extra pixels to width(W) and height(H)

In my experience I always need to add +30 in the width just to stop horizontal scrollbars appearing.

Normally I don't have to do this but with the Actinic template I do (there's probably something else I could change within Actinic but this is just as easy), works fine otherwise,

nice but all of what i was after

just happened upon this thread, to notice that what i was originally asking is something similar to say opening a jpg on my kiddies old win98 se laptop where the jpg opens in the i.e. explorer window. The first thing that happens is the picture which was bigger than 800x600 (this is the set screen res)opens full, so the scroll bars appear, then it shrinks to fit that window, if i then make it bigger / smaller the image auto adjusts etc its been around for eons i just dont know how its done thats all thanks for your constructive input banger unlike others!!

thanks
si

Call me stupid

But where do I find Act_ExtendedInfoImageAbove.html as I have looked in all my folders and cannot find it. I have also looked under Design Libary, LAyouts and cannot find it.

I created a new layout but that will not work.

If you are using v8 or later, you will not find a file with that name, this is a v7 and earlier forum.

**bangers** · 04-May-2011, 02:45 PM

Wow! You're kidding right? This was a v7 or earlier patch.
Me think you are v8 or above.

Design>Libary>Layouts>Extended Info Layout>Choose the layout you are using

or better still create a new layout based on one in the libary and then link to it.

Bangers

**neilspinney** · 04-May-2011, 03:14 PM

correct v10, I just did a search for this topic in the forum, didn't even look where it was!?

**neilspinney** · 04-May-2011, 03:21 PM
