Stupid Microsoft Word...

[TRUNKS]

Im trying to do a few simple and quick webpages with Microsoft Word (on Windows XP), but whenever I put in images they are always smaller, I need them EXACTLY the same FREAKING SIZE!

Ive looked around on settings and stuff but I cant find anything for this. Anyone know what I can do?

just use Microsoft Front Page than Word, its quite easy there and has simple html code. Word generates xml files together with your html file. a simple html file with <img src..> tag will take 100's of lines plus an xml file on MS word if you save your word doc as web page.

It isn't MS Word's fault :p
If you really must use Word, insert your pic, highlight it, go to a corner and when you see an arrow thingy, drag it diagonally to the desired size. But as kabatak said, MS Word does make for a messy html file.

Moving to html forum.

You could open it in a graphics program, copy, then paste it into Word. But honestly trunks, get a better WYSIWYG program, it will save a lot of time and trouble. Netscape composer is good, use it to format as you would Word.

Try this.
Create your page in MS word.
SAVE AS to HTML format.
Open that file as a text file.
Edit the width and height attributes of the <img> tag to match the exact size of the original image.
SAVE AS a TEXT file.
