Happy Camper

I am using Publisher 2007. I want to know how to create a link within my web
site to another web site where the page will display in a reduced size.
Thanks.

Sorry, I don't know the language very well. I want to write a HTML code
fragment. The result I want is for the referred to web site to display in
another browser at a reduced size page. Thank you.

You can build a second website that is smaller in size with a second
Publisher publication and upload it to a subfolder on your host, and link to
that.

It might be helpful to explain more fully what problem you are having and
perhaps there is a better solution we can offer.

I appreciate your trying to help me; however, my question has not been
answered. I do not know any other way to ask it. The html code fragment is
for an outside web site to be viewed in a seperate browser at a reduced size.

Hi Happy Camper,

I think what you may be asking is how to open a website in a new window,
Yes? If so this is the code you need to insert into the code fragment box
.....i.e >Insert>Code fragment.

javascript:Show('http://*****','newwindow','') just delete the stars and
replace with the website URL. Be very careful and make sure you only delete
the stars in this code.

I always construct mine in notepad and then copy and paste it into the code
fragment box, that way you can be sure that you have the code correct.

You can add another code for changing the size of the window and I think
this may be it...

toolbar=no,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes,height=600,width=700 just string it
to the other code.

This code will give you a window without toolbars, but with scrollbars. You
can also resize the window to the height and width you require by changing
the size.

Just select the text or picture you want to link, insert the code and when
you do a web preview, voila..your link should open in a new window at the
size you have chosen.

If this isn't what you're looking for, post again and I'm sure someone will
help.

You can't automagically reduce the size of an existing Publisher web page.
Publisher produces static, fixed width pages. A viewer can impact the size
with zoom control, but you cannot dictate that for the viewer.

If you want a different size then you have to change the size in Publisher.
And as I suggested if you want two sizes then you have to use two Publisher
files.

What I forgot to add was that you can copy and paste the lines of code from
my last reply!

I looked through my old web sites and found this is the way I did it. I am
posting this in case other folks want to know to do this . . . BTW what do
you call this action?? Thank you.
<p style="font-family:new times roman;font-size:80%"><a
href="http://www.*****/" target="_blank">name of web site</a></p>

This is not going to reduce a page size. At best it might reduce some of the
text size if the text is times new roman. Images, other design elements and
page width will not be affected. In fact it is likely to only mess up the
layout of the page. But I could be wrong and if that is what you wanted,
then I am glad you found it...
