I just spent an hour or so reading docs on the windows registry. Specifically parts pertaining to Internet Explorer.

I hacked my registry so I now have "Resize To 800x600" and "Resize To 1024x768" in my right click (for the main doc only, not images, anchors, etc.).

If your interested, I exported my registry changes and zipped all the required files (2 html files, 2 .reg files). I seperated the two .reg files so you can add one and not the other.

I'm using WinXP with IE6, but from the docs I've read, this looks like it should work for IE5+.
NO GUARANTEE! NO WARRANTY!

Now I'm thinking about making myself an IE toolbar. Laughing out loud hmmm...

Good hack! I just tweaked it a little to have a right click option to send the page to dreamweaver. That way, I can rip sites even faster Wink
