Page prints

Some pages require ‘landscape’ printing (e.g. the Guidelines pages - both canine and feline, the Annualized Protocols pages - both canine and feline, the HELP page, and the Home page).

‘Landscape’ printing is set up in the “Page Setup” selection of the “File” option of all browsers.

1. Click the down arrow next to the Printer icon on the toolbar
2. Select Print Preview
3. When the preview appears, select “Shrink To Fit” in the last drop down box at the top
4. Click the Print button to print


(to determine the level of Internet Explorer being used, click on HELP then ABOUT in the browser)

Monitor resolution - The website (www.dvmvac.com) was designed for monitors with a resolution of 1024 x 768. It may be viewed at a lower resolution (e.g. 800 x 600), however, the lines of text and tables may be confusing.
If using Windows - and you wish to change the screen resolution:
  1. Right click on an “empty” space on the desktop
  2. Click on Properties in the resulting “drop down” menu
  3. Click on the Settings tab (2nd line from top)
  4. Use the “slider” control to choose the new screen resolution (1024 x 768)
  5. Choose yes in the resulting dialog
(If the screen resolution was 800 x 600 previously, the text and icons will display smaller)

Q & A  Viewer - A bulletin board type feature is provided for viewing of previously asked Questions & Answers. All entries are READ ONLY. (To ask a question, please use the Question Form on the CONTACTS page or from the HOME page.)

To increase (or decrease) text size - (you'll need a mouse with a Control Wheel for this to work):
  1. Click anywhere within a window (but not on an operational/navigational button)
  2. Holding down the Ctrl key, spin the scroll wheel on your mouse. One direction will cause the text size to increase, while the other direction will decrease
(This works throughout the website ... the text size may be changed, however the table borders will remain the same.)

Search (from the Home page) - The entire Vaccination Website ONLY will be ‘searched’ using the word string entered in the ‘search box’ on the Home page - with the results displayed in Google format on a new page.
e.g. If a search argument of "cav–1" is entered in the search box, a ‘result’ page is displayed in seconds with Canine Shelters (www.dvmvac.com/CSheltr.shtml) as one of the ‘hits’. (Note: All URL's ending in .shtml are valid and part of the current website.) If Canine Shelters is ‘clicked’, the appropriate page is displayed.

Website suggestions - Any website structure/navigation suggestions should be made by sending an email to the Webmaster

Links - ‘linkable’ text transfers the viewer to a different location on a page (e.g. the top of the page), or another page, or another Website altogether:
  1. A ‘linkable’ area is indicated when it changes from white to yellow as the cursor “hovers” over the text (for exceptions - see below)
    (hovering is when the cursor “pauses” over an area for 1 -2 seconds)
  2. TOP indicators ... are black and turn blue when ‘hovered over’
  3. The ‘last updated’ link , ‘help’ link (both on the home page), and links on this page are blue and turn yellow
  4. A yellow “navigation bar” is provided at the top of each page (except Home) - the background of the page to be “linked to” turns light blue when hovering
