Forcing the web browser to have a minimum size?

[J741]

Does anyone know if it is possible to have the web browser enforce a minimum windows size?

I would like to make sure (as much as possible) that the end-user can not shrink my page to below 100px by 50px.

I have tried to use some javascript to read the window size parameters and change them to the minimum if they fall below the minimum, but using the onResize command in the BODY tag results in a large number of calls to my javascript function (instead of just calling it once when the resize is complete), which is very undesirable as it creates instability.

Using onresize should only call the attached function when the window is resized. Perhaps if you posted your code we might be able to see what's going wrong.

Do you think they are likely to do so? That's not much more than postage stamp size on a lot of modern screens. I wouldn't worry about it.

[tt]min-width[/tt] and [tt]min-height[/tt] are the attributes I would look into. They don't really work in IE, but usually when there are no forms on the page, you can surpass that problem via expressions.
