yeah... that isn't going to happen... i don't think java can just change the screen resolution... no access to the registry?

you can definitely resize the browser size accommodated by the user's resolution.

however, changing a user's resolution...you must be a really good hacker.

first rule of working with the web.. make sure it can got 640.480 cause there are tonnes of AOL users us use that..
Make it small in loading time.

Usually I build for 800.600 but if I feel like it 640.480.

I suggest you scale down.

As fore changing res in javascrpt you do not have permissions to do that, same goes with java. However maybe with activex you can do some funky things.

I dont know if this is possible, but you could try to make the images larger (say to fit 1600x1200), then make each image/frame/etc, some kind of variable.

When the user comes to the site, you determine their resolution, and have the browser resize the images/frames/etc.

(eg: if resolution = 800x600 then
title.width = 400
title.height = 150)

Again I dont know if its possible, but it might because I know you can cange the display height and width of an image with standard HTML tags.
