There ought to be a button you can click that will make the window wide enough for the widest thing on a web page, but otherwise as narrow as possible (with a settable minimum, probably defaulting to 640).

Rick, what do we do with this?

Re-assigned back to myself and downgraded priority to P3.

Accepted bug as ASSIGNED.

Reduced priority to P5 and adjusted platform, OS, component, etc.

Set target milestone to M7.

Move to M20.

Move to "Future" milestone.

Since Don has left, Vishy is taking his bugs in bulk, pending reassignment. thanks, Vishy

nav triage team: There was a bug earlier on using the mac "zoom" box (window maximize feature) in the window title area to do just this. That was minused, so is this one. Marking nsbeta1-

See also bug 13179, Zoom button on Mac should take amount of content into account. You can sort of fix this bug by creating a personal toolbar bookmark with the following URL: javascript:window.sizeToContent();

-> default owner

Mass moving all of my open Nav/toolkit bugs to new owner.

I would prefer seeing this in an external project. I don't think it would be used enough to warrent inclusion in Mozilla. Given Jesse's workaround, we could probably add it to one of the wishlist FAQs and WONTFIX this.

Based on comment 13, I am going to mark this bug WONTFIX. If you'd like this functionality, I would highly reccomend that you use the very intelligent method in comment 10. -M
