Unchangeable default setting for placing Java on IE?

[Guillermo Kravausky]

Hi ALL!!

I've got a simple applet running (800,600) on IE 6.0. It seems that no matter what u do, there is some spacing (about 10-20 pixels) on top and left-hand-side (even if v | hspace=0 and/or align = top | left, etc). is there a way to get rid of that space?

the reason i'm asking this is because i've got the screen setting to be 800x600 and whant to display the applet on full screen (by pressing <F11> on IE, auto-hiding taskbar & toolbar, and with scroll=no on HTML). any help on this will be very very greatful.

OB ONE Kenobi,

Welcome to JavaRanch!

We ain't got many rules 'round these parts, but we do got one. Please change your display name to comply with The JavaRanch Naming Policy.

Thanks Pardner! Hope to see you 'round the Ranch!

Moving this to the HTML and JavaScript forum...

You could also put a button in your applet that will "pop" the applet out of the page maximized. Then you can do whatever you want with borders, etc. I thought we talked about this not too long ago in the applets forumk buty I can't find the discussion.

Do not leave any spaces between the applet tag and whatever you have abpve it. That might solve the problem.
