Sure... first, check to see if the user has opted to "preview" or "generate" the page (I'm extracting from your description that you're interested in doing this on PREVIEW). The following IF statement takes care of that:

if (iwpt_get_flag_param('-oprefix') eq 'preview') { ... }

Next, you'll need to output some JavaScript if the above condition is met. Play around with properties like "screen.height", "screen.width", "self.height", and "self.width". "Screen" deals with the user's resolution and "self" describes the properties of the browser window, itself. There are some tricks like allowing 20px on each side for the margin or gutter of the web browser, but using the four properties above, you should be good.

I just always use:
window.moveTo(0,0);
window.resizeTo(screen.width,screen.height);You can play around with it, as Dave said, by subtracting some pixels from each of the values to get it to the size you want. But you definitely only want to do this if it is a preview, not for generate, as Dave pointed out.

Ooh, that's pretty sweet, actually. Yeah, I guess I would have done that in like 4 or 5 lines but that accomplishes it in 2! Good job, Jeff.

Thanks,

Actually, this is slightly better:
window.moveTo(0,0);
window.resizeTo(screen.availWidth,screen.availHeight);With this you shouldn't need to play around with adding/subtracting pixels.

Nice, but availHeight and availWidth are implemented in JS 1.2, so there might be some browser compatibility issues.

Yeah, but you could probably do something like this:
function resizeWindow()
{
window.moveTo(0,0);

if (screen.availWidth)
{
window.resizeTo(screen.availWidth,screen.availHeight);
}
else
{
window.resizeTo(screen.width,screen.height);
}
