Resizing viewable screen area

A

Alan

My webpage can be viewed in my 19inch and 17 inch monitor at its full width
but in a friends 15 inch monitor he has to use the scroll bars to navigate
from one side of the webpage to the other. Can I alter something in
frontpage to allow those with smaller monitors to view my site more easily.

No. You have to create your page fit the smaller resolution you think will
visit your site. This is best done with tables either set to 100% or 750
fixed pixel wide table.

monitor at its full
width my site more
easily.
might pass along. I'm having a similar problem as Alan.
But, I thought if you created a main table in FP and set
the table width to 100%, then the page elements/contents
(graphics, text, etc) into tables within the main table
(also setting width to 100%), then the viewable area would
dynamically adjust to whatever resolution the viewer has
their monitor set to. In my case I kind of have it
working, but still am having certain flaky problems.
Thanks for any help. Kerry

True to a point, the tables will reduce to the largest item inserted into
it. So if you enter a 750 pixel image, then that is as small as the table
will go. Also the image will not stretch to fix a larger resolution.
