Re: Changing the background color of the portal - Portal page height

Fri, 15 Apr 2005 04:39:20 -0700 

Dear Stefano,

I think that only looks good for someone who has the same resolution (1280 x 1024 ?) as you do. For someone with 800x640 for example it probably doesn't.

Bye,
Sven.

Dear Sven,
also <td height="600"> works fine, and allows to have all pages that are
"shorter" than 600 px to look the same, whereas the others are rendered as
they are.
A percentage is more dynamic but makes appearance change in all pages (80%
of each different height).
Anyway, let the user choose the best one! ;-)
Bye
Stefano

height


Dear Stefano,

thanks for the tips. It works for me. But you shouldn't use an exact
number like 600px (I don't know how you call that in English), but an
percentage (I used: 80%) to make it work on all screen set-ups.

Thanks a lot,
Sven.
