I have built several sites using a screen resolution of 1024 X 768. I was at a friends house and his screen is set at 800 x 600 and it sure looked different,...
Today's standard is still to design for 800x600. When web first started, it was 640x480, but as screen resolution and monitors became larger, it crept up to...

You should check in the browser with it set to 800x600. Which also lets you see what might be "below the fold". A few times I've done that and seen a page that...
Percentages work great but when you move to CSS you might want to aim for 99% since rounding errors can force horizontal scrollbars, especially in IE. Cheryl...
