Page width for differing screen resolution

[Isaiah]

I am having problems getting my page to automaticallly
adjust to differing size windows. I can get it to work
by setting the selected data to position relative. This
seems to work in preview until I exit and return to
frontpage.?????

There seems to be two issues...
1) How to accomplish varying the size of the page
relative to the size of the window, and
2) Why doesn't it work when I leave my web/frontpage, and
then re-open?

Thanks in advance.

You probbly have a mixture of elements sized or positioned in terms of
pixels and in terms of percentages. This leads to problems because the
percentage-sized items adjust to page width, and the pixel-sized items
don't.

The best approach is to:

o Always use tables for page layout.
o Never use absolute or relative positioning.
o Size all cells and columns in terms of percentages, not pixels.
