Layers

I am using overlapping layers (absolute positioning) at
my website. However, some people have screen resolutions
set at 800 x 600px while others have them set at 1024 x
768px.

As such, should I heep the maximum width of a layer to
800px to get the best display at both settings?

Also, is there a way to have the entire page
automatically center when viewed at 1024 x 768px? (I
don't like all the blank space [224px] at the right-hand
side of the screen.)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Steph

Absolute positioning means just that
- absolute to something
You can set your positioning relative to a center aligned table (if you really need to use positioning at all)

Use a javascript to get the targeted browsers screen
resolution and center your page accordingly.
