In FP 2003 I set my design view to a custom 800x600 maximized (set at 760x520) and try to stay less than 760 px wide
| HI Stephan
| Thanks for that, absolutely perfect now!
| Out of interest, when you're developing your sites, what screen resolution
| do you base it on or use on your screen? I usually have my screen set 1280
| x 1024 for everyday office work, but this obviously makes any website at
| lower resolutions look massive, not to mention ugly, especially if I've
| filled the screen with text! On the other hand, I've looked at a site where
| the writing was so small you couldn't read it without a magnifying glass!
