Hi, I've just made a site and would like to know how to make it so that if someone has got a smaller resolution to what I have designed it for it fiots down to fu=it to that side and vice versa. I know it can be doen because I have seen it on many other sites.
Any help Plz.

well basically, if the page contains mainly text, you can use tables to stretch the the users screen size

however if images are used, you can really have an automatic image resizing

basically you want to put all you data in a table, and set the height and width to 100%

Regards, Jamie McCoy

do you have the website uploaded yet so we can get a visual? usually i'd say the best way to adapt to all screen resolutions is to divide things up by percentages instead of pixels i.e. width="20%" instead of width="150" or w/e

Use percentages within tables so it moves with the screen res. Personally I design on a 1024*768 monitor, but I aim to satisfy both that size and look reasonably good at 800*600. Anything below that and it will look cramped but they should be upgrading anyway; anything above that and my pages will still stretch to fit. I do not provide for PDA, WAP or WebTV, the latter is dated, the other two are still too new and minority.

heres my site http://tnt-radio.tk and dont really understand nything everyone has said lol.

Nick, I think you had better concentrate on the size of the files you have opening on your home page first. I have a DSL connection and I waited for at least 2 minutes for the page to download and open. I didn't feel like waiting any longer so I never got to view your website. This is way too long. You will never have anyone hang out much longer to see what is on your site. The average time for page download should be measured in seconds, not minutes.

Randy, I think there was a temporary glitch either at your end or Nick's ISP. The page took 2 seconds to open for me; that's including the annoying pop ups.

Rite It shouldnt take to long to load now I've uploaded all the images so it'z all html anyway what pop-ups when I go into it I have none at all whats all this about. Back to the subject is there an easy way like a code I could put in to make it fit to most screens?

You need to put all your content inside a table. Make sure the tables width and height are set at 100% as previously stated, if you don't understand I suggest you look for some tutorials. You can have other table inside that table also.

!Hmm!

KK has anyone cot an html code for a table and I could work the rest of it out coz I cnt find one.

Starts a table:
<table bgcolor="#F0F0F0" background="image.gif" width="450" height="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0">
<tr>
<td>

Content goes here.

Use </td><td> to create several cells across the page.

Use </td></tr><tr><td> to start a new row.

Use </td></tr></table> to close it all off when done.

You can have 'bgcolor' or 'background' or both within <table>, remove whichever you don't use. You can also have 'bgcolor' within individual <td> cells to vary colours.

You can use <td width="25%" height="100"> to set that cell to a fixed size or as percentage of table area.

Change the values shown in these samples as needed. If you don't want to set a size, set the value to zero.

If you have problems, use www.htmlgoodies.com for basic HTML tutorials. That's all, this is basics, so if you can't figure the useage from this...
