Adjusting image size as % of screen size.

Is there a way to have a jpeg image display at the size of the available
screen? That is, if a visitor to the website has 768x1024 monitor the jpeg
will display larger than if the visitor has a 480x640 monitor. The size of
the image would also be affected by the space left by the browser (deducting
its' menus, etc.).

When I tried setting picture properties and specifying size as a percent, I
got strange results. I specified size as 50% for width and height. When I
viewed it in the browser, it looked like it displayed the image using 50% of
the available screen space in each direction without regard to proportions,
so the image was distorted. What is going on here? Is there any way around
this so that it maintains the proportions of the image?

Thanks,

Huck
