Resizing Windows to Hug Images

I am trying to achieve the following - can anyone help?

Before you jump on me for wanting to interfere with the user's windows -
it's' for a corporate intranet where we can and will dictate what they see
and how they see it.

I have a popup which displays an ASP page with an image on and a small amout
of text (not that it matters much I guess, but entire site is in ASP).

I want the window to resize itself on opening to 'hug' the image (scrolling
to see the text is fine - as long as the image is hugged as much as
possible). However, some images will be bigger than the screen, so I want a
maximum which it will resize to if the image is bigger than the specified
maximum.

Also, to confuse matters - some users have varying screen-resolutions, so an
added bonus would be to detect the users screen size and set the maximum
resize value according to this.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance
