Thanks for reporting. What window manager do you use? What is your
screen size (in pixels)?
That page does a few strange things:
- <body onresize="window.location.href = window.location.href;">
so when the window resizes, the page reloads
- move top-left corner to recenter on reload
- calls the resetSize(90) function to determine 90% of screen size
on reload, using the following script:
http://www.gda.bayern.de/bestaende/viewer/sizeViewerToPage.js
- writes a table and embedded flash object with that width and height
using document.write().
That first part seems very questionable to me. Based on
https://developer.mozilla.org/en/DOM/window.open#Best_practices
I am guessing it would be better to use the width= and height=
parameters when opening the window instead of trying to second-guess
the user who resizes it later.
Hope that helps,
Jonathan
