My upgraded calendar has finally gone live at: http://www.eastsidearts.org/cgi-bin/calendar.pl

One of the users is complaining that he has his system setup at 800x600 with large fonts and he can't see everything in the popup box for an event and that there are no scroll bars. (aside: I thought large fonts were used with especially high resolutions, this seemed like an unusual configuration to me)

I'm not really sure what to do about this. I imagine I need to edit one or more of the templates, but what changes are needed? I'm a novice. I don't know how to impact the size of the box or if it has scroll bars.

Any guidance greatly appreciated. Thanks.

The code responsible for the Event View popup is:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
function showDetails(id) {
   var width=500;
   var height=500;
   var x = Math.round((screen.availWidth - width) / 2);
   var y = Math.round((screen.availHeight - height) / 2);
   var featureString = 'left='+x+',top='+y+',width='+width+',height='+height;

   var details = window.open('http://www.wwwroot4.net/~eac/cgi-bin/calendar.pl?popup=1&template=event_detail.html&event_id='+id, 'event_details', featureString);
   }
</SCRIPT>

I don't know what template it is in as you look to be using  the Old Style templates which I'm not familiar with. You can change the popup size in that code and/or add the scroll bars options to the featureString variable.

Thanks. I've changed the window size to 800x600. That should shut him up! Appreciate the directions.
