I don't think anybody has stated this yet in this thread: there isn't any
script that makes a web site automatically adjust to different
resolutions/window sizes. It's not possible and it doesn't exist; that's why
we're giving you these other answers.
If you remember having heard something about a script for this purpose, it
was probably a script which detects the monitor resolution and redirects the
user to a page supposedly designed for that resolution. These do exist, but
they are about the worst possible solution to the problem, because (1)
monitor resolution doesn't determine window size, and (2) who wants to build
and maintain two or three complete separate web sites with the same content?
If you're looking for a clear, brief answer to your problem, Steve Easton's
first post in this thread has got one.
