Image Size Tags

[John Whitworth]

I'm currently using a combination of VB & ASP to generate thumbnail
pages on the fly:

http://www.essexchurches.info/Parishindex.asp

I am having a problem, whereby whilst loading the page, everything goes
out of line. This is due to not having IMG WIDTH & HEIGHT tags. But I
cannot do so, as I do not know whether the thumb is 100x75 or 75x100
pixels when generating the page.

Is there any way around this, other than creating every thumb as 100x100?

Thanks

John

What if you specify a standard table cell size for the maximum possible
dimensions of the image and have the cell content (the image) centered
within the cell?

I am interested in your method for creating thumnails. Can you share it?

I just use the XP Powertoys resizing tool. It's the quickest and
simplest way I've found of going about it, as multiple actions can be
performed at once.

When I said I use VB & ASP, I simply meant for the generation of the
code to pull in these already created thumbnails.

I'll look into that ... though I think it could become a little tricky.
The way I am generating the tables is a little tricky, to say the least.
And FP has the annoying habit of deleting loads of ASP when reformatting!!

In FP2000 (possible later versions 2): Click Tools -->Page Options -->
HTML Source tab and check off Preserve existing HTML.

Another work around. If you copy HTML code from another application
(browser, Word etc) Frontpage will screw aup the converted text. To
prserve the code, copy it to Notepad or a plain text editor, and then
copy it from Notepad to Frontpage.
