I badly need some helpful advice. I have done many websites now, but one of
the problems I have is deciding
about the width of the site.
In some cases I have used tables and set the table width to 800 pixels
because I want the site to be fixed and not float around if people stretch
or shrink the browser window. In other cases, I like the site to be 100% of
the screen and yet look good whether the window is maximised or made
smaller. It is often a case of deciding on the design.
However, the problem I am having is that when people try to print a website
which is of a set pixel size, for example 800 pixels. a lot of text and
graphics gets chopped off the right hand side.
Can anyone give me some idea of the best width to use and whether it is
better to fix the width or make it a percentage.
Thanks Laura TD
