Webpage screen resolution

[k.wright]

Does anyone know how to set the screen resolution in FrontPage so that the website looks the same on all screens. I am new at web design, and this problem is really bothering me. Please help!

Set the preview window size

When site visitors view your page in a Web browser, how much (or how little) of your page is displayed in their browser window depends on the screen resolution of their computer. For example, a visitor browsing at 800x600 resolution can view a larger part of the page than one browsing at 640x480. Use this procedure to see how the page will appear when a site visitor's Web browser is set to a different screen resolution.

In Page view, open the page you want to preview. On the File menu, click Preview in Browser.
Under Window size, click the screen resolution you'd like to simulate when you preview the page. The choices displayed reflect the screen resolutions available on your computer.

Tip

Click Default to preview the page in a browser window the size of the default screen resolution for your computer."

Use a table, even if it is only one cell wide, and set the attribute of the cells to 100% of screen width. This will make the cells the full width of the viewers browser window, whatever it happens to be.

For what it worth.

Under certain circumstances it might be useful to actually "read" the information about people's monitor resolution from the registry.
This is stored in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Config\0001\Display\Settings\Re solution

If you write a script, you'll be able to read the resolution and then choose the action you want (write a set of pages for each resolution?)
Of course, this applies to Windows users only.

Or, if you're using frames, don't set the size in pixels but in percentage.
