Position of web page in region

Asked by Joe Clifford

Hi all,

Great piece of software by the way; I'm thinking of rolling it out in a college environment however can anyone tell me if it is possible to position a certain area of a website to display within a region? For example, the web site I want to display in a region that takes up a third of the total screen size is larger than the region itself. I would like to either have the web site zoom to fit the region size or, preferably, position the web site so that the needed info is displayed within the boundaries of the region (no zooming).

Cheers.....

Hi Joe

It's not possible I'm afraid.

What you can do as a bit of a hack is use the embedded html media to embed an iframe with a zoom factor. The exact details were in a recent question.

Be aware though that this behaviour isn't intensional and may break at a later date.

Cheers

Alex

Here's the suggested fix from the other thread:

"i found a solution :
my web page is in an iframe, to zoom this page it's possible to do like that :
<iframe ...............style="zoom:85%"></iframe>
it works only with iexplorer "

Can you help with this problem?
