It seems to break apart a little in IE 7 but as you know works fine
in Firefox 2.
Although I'm fond of absolute zoom like this, I get a lot of
push-back from collaborators and clients because it triggers a
horizontal scrollbar at high zoom. (I don't see anyone complaining
about Word, PDF, Excel, and other document formats doing this, but
maybe I get the push because I'm more accessible than Bill...) My
compromise is to make layouts that expand up to but not exceeding
window width, such as this http://i-edu.org/ and our own site
http://juniperwebcraft.com/
I don't generally make images expand because they tend to shrink and
expand badly, but your large image in this demo does OK. Did you
save it in any special way for this purpose?
Regards,
Paul
