Optimal Page Width?

K

Karl Burrows

I have tried to design pages at 100%, but there are just too many design
issues with title images, filling blank space with images (since they don't
work well in older browsers and Netscape as background images). I have
decided the best practice is to design them for 800x600 screens. That being
said, what would be the actual optimal width for design so that I include
space for scroll bar, etc.? I have read 750, but that seems to squeeze it a
bit tighter than it really needs to be.

Thanks!
