To get a better understanding of this I made a little test
page. (This test page might have been erased at some (later)
time).
See
Http://www.arxfoto.se/test/zoomtest/zoomtest.html

This is just a quick test,

For a quick comparison: Zoom up this page to 200% and
compare IMAGE 2 and Image 3.
IMAGE 2 is scaled down and Image 3 is shown as original.
Image 3 (and Image 1) has detoriated but IMAGE 2 still keeps
the sharpness because of the scaling down.

If you are extremely interested try to follow the directions
on the page.

And of course there is the cost of a larger image file.

A very good demonstration.

Sorry, I should have said something about the bigger image size. It was
really just an example of the auto-code you'll get by scaling the image
within DreamWeaver using the mouse.

If you're entering numbers manually, in either the porperties / inspector
panel or the code itself, then you could try using percentages instead of
pixels.
e.g.
<IMG SRC="Images/MyImage.jpg" WIDTH="75%" HEIGHT="75%">

Helpfull Harry :o)

Thanks Harry,

unfortunately putting in percentages in the code has a
surprising effect that the image is displayed in a FIXED
size independent of which zooming you have chosen for the
page.
And this size is as if the image had been displayed in the
full size in zoom 100% !

This strange effect is now illustrated in

It seems that the percentages here mean percentage of the
PAGE.
Which gives a fixed image size independent of zooming...
