I've already done that. Didn't help.

oh btw, where do I insert that piece of code? in the head?
Are you trying to pop up a new window for the picture to be seen?

If the file is a *.jpg, there should be no problem in displaying the picture any size you like. However, it is smart programming to actually fix the picture to the size you want in a photo editor. I personally like using a 35% shrink to display and a simple javascript code that will display the full photo when you hold the mouse on the picture.

As for web programs, I personally like SoThink HTML Editor. Its simple, but very useful.

Jimmy Higgins,

Thanks. Just tried that. Didn't work.

I'm starting to think that maybe I should just draw the images over and see if that works.

I've never been so frustrated with a single program. This is absolutely ridiculous!

What exactly did you try?

Can't you just use Microsoft Photo Editor and scale the photo to the 350x500?

We've all been there. I'll be waiting.

That's what I just did. Used Photoshop to scale down the image. I'm thinking of using Fireworks to do the same. Hope that works. *fingers, toes and eyes crossed*

you should post the image up that is giving you the problem, and someone should be able to tell you what is wrong with it.

Well if you don�t post it up the best anyone can do is simply keep guessing what is wrong, if you don�t want people taking your art work, you can just make a test image in illustrator and post that up. otherwise switch to fireworks, its not as robust as illustrator, or paintshop but it gets the job done, and has nice export to web wizard functions.

If you want to learn javascript and control things like window size and so on the best way to learn is through examples (I think anyways). I have not used javascript in a long time, but I did think this, http://www.dynamicdrive.com , was a good website with some good examples.

This example does that fix window size in a pop up window.

dreamweaver however does come with loads of what it calls 'behaviours' (which is just some jscript code) that can be utilised in a web page. You can access some nice functions through that.

Well, I solved the problem!

It was the images, not the code that was the problem. I recreated the images on another computer with Adobe Illustrator 10 and Adobe Photoshop 6 and now everything is fine.

Thanks for the help anyway, guys.
