Re: A frustrating weekend with FP2003 getting the correct page size

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

As Rob said, design to fit a 800x600 browser window.
With a page open, at the bottom of the design window in the status bar
are 4 entries. Mine read:
download time, page size, custom, custom
in that order.
Click on the page size, and the design and preview windows will be
restricted in width to whatever you choose - select 760x420 (which is
the available visible area in IE with vertical scroll bar and typical
toolbars,, when set to 800x600). I never worry about page length.

What a weekend.
I worked and worked and worked, got a nice page going for a local
bluegrass festival. And then I realized that my display was set on a
very high resolution. Therefore the page(s) I made and published,
when
viewed in most peoples browsers, were so darn big, one had to scroll
forever down and to the right to view them. Back to the drawing
board.

So how do I get FP2003 to size the page to fit the users screen?
I'm using layout tables. I also made the table 100% of width (which
I
presumed would adjust to the viewers display) but that doesn't seem
to
work either. Shall I remake the page 1024 pixels by 768 so that it
fits all possible page sizes?


Anyway here's the page
