SYMPTOMS
After you save a Web page that contains a horizontal rule ( tag) as Word 6.0/95, when you open the Word 6.0/95 document, the following error message may appear:

The dimensions after resizing are too small or too large.



CAUSE
When you save a Web page that contains an  tag as Word 6.0/95, the default WIDTH attribute is ignored. That is, when the  tag does not contain a WIDTH attribute, as in the following example, Word loses the default WIDTH attribute setting of 100 percent when the Web page is saved as Word 6.0/95.





WORKAROUND
To prevent this problem from occurring, add a WIDTH attribute to the  tag. For example, the following  tag does not cause this problem to occur after you save, close, and reopen your Web page saved as Word 6.0/95:





STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.



MORE INFORMATION
The  tag in Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) draws a horizontal rule. The size attribute of the  tag specifies the height of the horizontal rule in pixels. For example, the following tag draws a horizontal rule 1 pixel in height:



By default, the width attribute is set to 100 percent. This width causes the width of the horizontal rule to extend the entire width of the page.
