This thread made me dig around for a product I read about last year. I found
it, at:
http://www.basta.com/ProdReglo.htm
Product: Reglo - Graphics and Layout Design Tool (Windoze only)
It's a floating ruler that will sit in your "System Tray" for for quick use
whenever you need it. You can set the ruler to float on top and use it to
measure objects on your screen. A nifty feature that makes viewing your work
at different window sizes works like this:
1. Open the ruler so it's floating around
2. Right click and pick "Toggle sizing tool"
3. This opens up a little box with a list of window sizes and an icon you
can drag and drop on the window you want to resize.
4. Pick 640 x 480 in the list (or enter your own dimensions)
5. Drag the "Set Size" icon over to the window you want to resize and drop
it
6. Wa la! Window automatically resizes.
The program does a handful of other handy things, including a "magnifying
glass" for viewing items on the screen up close.

Anyone know if there is an article anywhere re: what happens when you try to
print (with various browsers) and the html does not bind the width of the
text in a table. ?
For example:
...
<body>
<P>A bunch of words that fill the page no matter what size the window is,
etc.
</body>
...
How do different printers and different browsers handle printing such a
document?
TIA,
Jack
