Making site good for different resolutions
I used Frontpage to make my site, and I just now realized that I made it in 1280x1024, and it looks screwed up in other resolutions.
Is there any way to make it fit to all resolutions? I know there are some programs out there that can do this, but can I just use Frontpage? What do I do? |

If you're using tables to layout your site, make sure to use precent widths rather than absolute. For example, if you set the width of a cell to be 80%, it will resize depending on the visitors resolution. However, if you set it to be 1,024 pixels wide, anyone will a lower resolution will have to scroll horizontally.

I don't use Front Page since it writes really bloated code, so what I would recommend is to open your HTML file in a text editor like Notepad, and check out the HTML Goodies site and take the basic primers. The best way to make good pages is by knowing the actual HTML.

Thanks. However, I'm on a time constraint and need to get my site up asap because I'm going out of town. If you could just tell me how to do this one thing, I promise I will learn html next week and never bother you guys again
 Perhaps I could send you the html and you could tell me if there's anything that could be done?

This code will let you easily create a page that detects the visitor's screen resolution and automatically loads a specific page depending on which resolution is used.
Insert it in the head tags. Also remember to rename the http://www.yahoo.com URLs to the URL of your website ^head^ ^script^var width = screen.width;var res =(((!(640-width))*1)+((!(800-width))*2)+((!(1024-width))*3)+((!(1152-width))*4)+((!(1280-width))*5)+((!(1600-width))*6)); if(!(res)) res = 1;if (res=='1') {window.location='http://www.yahoo.com'}if (res=='2') {window.location='http://www.yahoo.com'}if (res=='3') {window.location='http://www.yahoo.com'}if (res!='1' && res!='2' && res!='3') {window.location='http://www.yahoo.com'}^/script^ ^/head^ Good luck! Edited by moderator to stop this whole thread from redirecting to yahoo - replace ^ with < and >. ______________ [Morpheus] Last edited by glc; 04-10-2002 at 12:54 AM. |
