Hi, I have a website optimized for screen width and height of 1024 x 768. If anyone visits my site using 800 x 600 screen my web site is all mixed up for them. How can I make my site appear normal in any screen width? without altering it.

hope someone can answer this.

Thank you

Mike

If you setup your page for 1024*768, then anyone who is using a lower resolution (640*480, 800*600) will have problems viewing the page.

I recommend that you change to a 800*600 layout so that the maximum number of visitors can view your page correctly.
If you want to make your site clear for everyone, then you need to set it up for 640*480.

The lowest screen resolution is 640x480 but I know of no-one who is using such a low resolution. Your bet option is to setup 800x600 and that way anyone with higher resolution will not be botheres. But with a 17" screen, I believe most people are using 800x600.

If this is an Art's type of site and resolution is important, I'd recommend that you give viewers the option to view your site at 800x600 or 1024x768. That means setting up two different image resolutions(and two sets of pages), but for art's type of site, resolution is important. And placement is important too.

Hi I am sorry I cannot tell you how to do it but there is an html command to auto resize the picture on the web if you look at www.localinet.co.uk in 800x600 or 1024x768 or on either resolution put up your favourites the web page resizes. the owner of the site did tell me how to do it but I do not remember what he said.
