Hi i had an old 15" monitor with the resloution size 1024 by 768. I designed my websuite to fit this resloution. I have treted myself to a 17" TFT with the resolotion 1280 by by 1024. I have noticed my website ends up all squeshed in 1 corner and does not look good. is there any way that people can visit my website with what ever resoloution and the website will auto adjust to there resolotion?

you should also think about people who use 800x600 resolution which will see an ugly horizontal scrollbar on your site :D

the safest way is to create the site for 800x600, and try to make it look good on the larger resolution...

the easiest way is to center the whole page, so no matter how big the resolution is, the page is still centered...

> with what ever resoloution and the website will auto adjust

there are some ways to work around this, the simplest is by using tables, with percentage (not pixels) set as the width... but there're things to consider like image positioning, etc, so the layout won't ruin when the table width stretched...
