How can I keep my web site display with the same perspective.

All's fine with the Desktop's (1024 by 768 pixels), but when I view with Laptop (640 by 480 pixels) the coverage is to large.

My website is in HTML with a little CSS

Is there code to cure this???

Any help will be appreaciated as I am still in the learning stage...

this may not be the answer you seek but i would design my web site for 800x600 as most computers now use that resolution

i would be very surprised if many were still using 640x480

so, set up both your laptop and desktop for that resolution

Hi Serge,

Thanks for the info, but I errored in stating the laptop resolution.

I wrote the site using 1024 by 768, and when I view it with my laptop at 800 by 600, each of the frames resolutions show too large !!

Web Site is (http://www.claypenetration.com)

Any recomendations happily accepted

hello,

for a start, you might want to use fixed width as the frame's size so it'll stay the same even if the browser's size changed.

take a look here and view the source. it's even tidier than HTML tidy :D
