Opening Pic in New Window

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:

Even if I resize my new window to the exact dimensions of a picture, when it opens a white border is on the top and left hand side. if i resize it smaller, the border becomes larger and on all sides! How can I open a picture in a new window and only have the picture shown, with no border?

?

@fredmvJan 02.2004 — Welcome to the forums.

I'm guessing this is a problem with the default margins. Try adding this in the new window:<style type="text/css">
/*<![CDATA[*/
body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
border: 0;
}
/*]]>*/
</style>

@JenCauthorJan 03.2004 — where exactly does that go?

@fredmvJan 03.2004 — It can do anywhere (in the source code of the document containing the picture), however, it's usually placed in the [font=courier]<head>[/font] section.

@JenCauthorJan 03.2004 — what if the new window is only a jpg file? do i need to create it's own page for it?

@fredmvJan 03.2004 — You could either:[list=a]
  • [*]As you said, create it's own page, however, you could simplify this by using some rather simple server-side scripting to dynamically generate a page for it.
  • [*]Use JavaScript to create a new window with a reference to the image and the source code I provided in it. While this may seem like a good solution, it actually isn't because then users which don't have JavaScript support won't be able to use this feature.
