ReDoiT by PVII

ReDoIt by PVII is a "helper" extension that provides a workaround for Netscape 4x issues when using the onResize event handler. This browser requires that the MM Netscape Resize Fix is applied to the page, which forces NN4 to reload the page if the browser window is resized. Placing other scripts, like Snap Layers by PVII, on the onResize event will redefine the resize event in NN4 and prevent it from actually running the MM Netscape Resize Fix... which is necessary to force the browser to reload the page.

To prevent Netscape 4x from bogging down, we can apply ReDoIt to the BODY, onResize event. The script will then intercept the event and automatically trigger the MM Netscape Resize Fix to force the browser to reload the page. Of course, the script does nothing if you are viewing the page in a browser other than Netscape 4x and will let the rest of the onResize events fire normally.

Tip: Always apply ReDoIt as the first onResize event in the Behavior Panel to assure the Netscape 4 will fire this before any other onResize events.

1. Apply the MM Netscape Resize Fix

Be sure that you have the MM Netscape Resize Fix already applied to the page. ReDoIt will be "grayed" out if this is not on the page.

To Apply the MM Netscape Resize Fix:

  1. Choose Commands - Add/Remove Netscape Resize Fix
  2. Click Add to apply the behavior

Note: If the Netscape Resize Fix is already applied to your page the interface will display a "Remove" button instead. Hit Cancel to keep the fix on the page.

2. The ReDoIt Interface

ReDoIt should always be applied to the BODY tag, onResize event.

User Interface

3. Applying ReDoIt

  1. Select the <body> tag at the bottom left of the DW window. Be sure that the Behavior Panel title reads: Behaviors - <body> Actions
  2. Click the plus sign (+) on the Behavior Panel.
  3. Select Studio VII - ReDoIt by PVII.
  4. Click OK to apply the behavior.
  5. Set the event to onResize in the Behavior Panel.

Tip: Be sure to apply ReDoIt as the first onResize event in the Behavior Panel to assure the Netscape 4 will fire this before any other onResize events. Use the Up and Down arrows on the Behavior Panel to set the order of the events.
