Is there anyway that I can use an image for a background that will adjust to the size of the viewer's screen? And I don't want it to tile. I have my monitor set at 1280x1024 and I know that "normal" viewers don't have theirs set that high. Does anyone have any ideas? I sure hope so! [smile]

Thanks,
Heath

what do u mean by "image that will adjust to screen size"?
images are in Fixed size and HTML shound not be used to force their smaller larger size as u will slow peages loads or loose on reslution.
you can:
- adjust the position of the image
- detect user's screen reslution and redirect to the page that uses the larger image (look into JavaScript (code pannel--Snips--JavaScript--Browesers))
somewhere in line of:
Code: 
<script>
<!--
function sizeRedirect()
{
  var wide = window.screen.width;
    
  if(wide = 800) URLStr = "1.html";
  else URLStr = "2.html";
  location = URLStr;
}
//-->
</script>
</head>
<body onLoad="sizeRedirect();">

All the best!
