I want to create a website that's made up of an image map, but I have a couple of questions.

1) How do I make browsers which visit the site to resize the window around the image?

2) The image map will be over the border of the main image on the index.html part of the site, the middle portion will change when a person clicks on various links. How do I make text or movies to load in the middle of it?

For the first part, I would do it one of two ways:

1) create a dummy index page with a link that opens a new window, in that script, you can specify what size you want the new window to be. check www.javascriptsource.com or www.dynamicdrive.com for some codes like this

2) use a similar script to resize your window to a specific size when the page loads, similar to above, but one step less. again, check those sites for code

for the second question you had, I'd say maybe use an ifram in the center of the page to control what loads. Works the way frames work, but can be a lot more useful. browse google for info on iframes, or see my site (i use them to run my portfolio) http://www.avenirex.com/v2/portfolio.html

good luck.
