[Chameleon] Hawaii Application

Steve,

thanks for pointing that out.  This highlights an interesting problem.  
The map image is a DHTML layer that is positioned as the page loads.  It 
can be repositioned, but we don't (I don't even know if we can) trap 
page resizes ... in NS/Mozilla, they reload the page on a resize.  IE 
doesn't.

The issue can be resolved with template design, I believe.  In this 
case, the page could be kept at a fixed position from the left of the page.

I *think* another option that could be used in pages that want to center 
themselves would be to connect to the window resize event (from 
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/workshop/author/dhtml/reference/events.asp 
you can see the onresize event properties) using something like:

<script language="JavaScript">
window.onresize = myresizehandler;

function myresizehandler()
{
    window.location.reload();
}
</script>

(note: not tested, should test for browser version etc first)

I may consider looking into repositioning the map image on a resize 
event in IE as well, I'll add an enhancement bug for that.

Cheers,

Paul
