Locking Frames to keep a set of 4 images from getting pulled apart.

[PCLIVE]

Is there a way to lock frames at a certain pixel size so that regardless of
the screen resolution the images within a set of frames will not be pulled
apart?

For example: This may be a little unorthodox, but I've got an image that
I've split up into 4 separate images. I've placed the 4 images in separate
frames in such a way that the images come together and appear as one image.
I then have links within a certain frame that will change the image in
either the same frame or a different frame.

If the explorer window is fully maximized, then the set of 4 images do not
come together. So I'm looking to find out if there is a way to possibly
lock the frame sizes so that the images do not get pulled apart.

Thanks
Paul

Place a 4 cell table inside the frame, and make the cells a fixed width
1 pixel smaller that the width of the image. Then insert the images.

Steve,

This sounds like a good idea in which I know how to do, but how will I be
able to have hotspot links on a graphic in one of the cells and have only a
specific cell's graphic change when that link is clicked?

Thanks,
Paul

Create your hotspot links, link to the image and in hyperlink properties
select "Target Frame" and tell it which frame to open in.

I appreciate your help...but I must be missing something because this
response seemed to be contradictory to your last response. You originally
suggested that I place a 4-cell table inside of the frame (indicating that
I'm only using one frame). I can and have done that but I can't link my
hotspot to populate only a specific cell. I assumed you were suggesting to
put one graphic in each cell which will come together to make, what appears
to be, a single image. Now you're telling me to target a specific frame
when setting the hyperlink. Using multiple frames causes a problem if the
IE window is expanded.

Thanks again,
Paul

Oops, yep you are correct.
I thought you were targeting a different frame to display the new image.

Hi, Paul,

You should be able to create the effect that you want by putting your images
in cells, as Steve suggests, and then using mouseover events to change the
images in the other cells. If you need mockup code, let me know, and I'll
put something together for you to play with.

Lisa,

Thanks a bunch. That would be great. I had already been trying to play
with something like that with no luck. But if you were able to provide me
some example code, I could probably work it out. I'm assuming I'd be able
to use the OnClick function in the same fashion.
Thanks again,
Paul
