asked on
HTML Window Resize in <Body> tag?
This one should be simple, but I just can't find the answer. How do you size the browser Window in both Netscape and IE, or are there different tags for each browser? I believe this is an attribute of the <Body> tag, is it not?

Brandon, I think perhaps what the questioner was getting at is that if someone was using a script like you posted, it migth be called on the "onLoad" event of the body tag, correct?
<html>
<head>
<script language="javascript">
function resize()
{
//window.resizeTo(<width>,
window.resizeTo(400,500);
}
</script>
</head>
<body onLoad="resize();">
</body>
</html>
<html>
<head>
<script language="javascript">
function resize()
{
//window.resizeTo(<width>,
window.resizeTo(400,500);
}
</script>
</head>
<body onLoad="resize();">
</body>
</html>
the methods do not need to be called after the body is loaded. the methods can be called at any point in time.
<html>
<head>
<script language="javascript">
//window.resizeTo(<width>,
window.resizeTo(400,500);

It's not an attribute of the body tag, but offcourse you can call it from the body tag...
You don't need to use a different function to do it either...
You could just use:
<body onload="window.resizeTo(40
Mind the capital T...

window.resizeBy(300,-100);
resizing browsers thru the window object, nothing to do with the body tag.
