Need a BIG window

[Einron]

Hello guys, this may be a simple one, still I need some help.

I'm working on a site which contains a lot of pictures, and I need a window stripped for all unnessesary stuff like menus ond buttons and so on, so the pictures gets as big and nice as possible.

After the first password-protected page comes a 'choose language' page, and both these pages can stay 'normal'. But all the following pages I want BIG!

On the 'choose language' page, I have put the folloving link:

<a href="nepalno.html"><IMG border=0 src="images/norway.gif"></a> , which brings me to the next page.

So now, please tell me an easy way to define the next pages BIG...

I'm working on a site which contains a lot of pictures, and I need a window stripped for all unnessesary stuff like menus ond buttons and so on, so the pictures gets as big and nice as possible.Then consider informing users that they can toggle in and out of fullscreen mode in many browsers by pressing F11.


On the 'choose language' page, I have put the folloving link:

<a href="nepalno.html"><IMG border=0 src="images/norway.gif"></a> , which brings me to the next page.Don't use flags (http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/flags.html) (presumably that's what the image is) to indicate language. The img element requires an alt attribute and, if you continue to use a flag, the value of that attribute should be the name of that language (written natively).

the name of that language (written natively)."Norsk."

"Norsk."Yes, though I was just writing in generic terms. :)

German should be Deutsch. Japanese should be 日本語 (Nihongo; you might need to select a Unicode encoding to see that properly). I'm sure the OP gets the idea.

I'm viewing this page in ISO-8859-1, and yet I can still see your kanji. I thought that character set contained only Western characters?

Come to think of it, I posted some hiragana a while back, and I could see them too. Now I'm puzzled :)

I'm viewing this page in ISO-8859-1, and yet I can still see your kanji. I thought that character set contained only Western characters?It does (its alias being Latin-1), but it would seem that the forum software encodes characters outside its repertoire. If you look as the source, the kanji are included as decimal character references.

Aha, I see. And the browser handles decimal character references using another charset if the current one can't provide the capability?

[mwinter]

And the browser handles decimal character references using another charset if the current one can't provide the capability?No. All HTML documents use the Universal Character Set (UCS) defined in ISO 10646 as their repertoire; essentially, all of Unicode. The charset parameter to the text/html media type specifies how a particular document is encoded so that a user agent knows how to convert it from that representation to the one it uses internally.

Does that make sense?

It does, thank you. :)
