Resizing the Document window

The current dimensions (in pixels) of the Document window appear in the window's status bar. Clicking the window size brings up the Window Size pop-up menu, which allows you to set the window size to fit any of several common monitor sizes. To help you design a page that looks good at a specific size (or several different sizes), you can adjust the Document window to any of the sizes listed on the pop-up menu.

Note: The window size is given as the inside dimensions of the browser window, without borders; the monitor size is listed in parentheses. So, for example, the option "536 x 196 (640 x 480, Default)" is the window size to use if your visitors are likely to be using Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator in their default configurations on a 640 x 480 monitor.

To resize the Document window to a predetermined size:

Choose one of the sizes from the pop-up menu at the bottom of the Document window.

To change the values listed in the Window Size pop-up menu:

1	Choose Edit Sizes from the Window Size pop-up menu.
2	Click any of the Width or Height values in the Window Sizes list and type a new value.
	To make the Document window adjust only to a specific width (leaving the height unchanged), select a Height value and delete it.
3	Click the Description field to enter descriptive text about a specific size.

To add a new size to the Window Size pop-up menu:

1	Choose Edit Sizes from the Window Size pop-up menu.
2	Click the blank space below the last value in the Width column.
3	Enter values for Width and Height.
4	Click the Description field to enter descriptive text about the size you added.
	For example, you might type "SVGA" or "average PC" next to the entry for an 800 x 600 pixel monitor, and "17-in. Mac" next to the entry for an 832 x 624 pixel monitor. Note that most monitors can be adjusted to a variety of pixel dimensions.
