Resizing Web Browser

[RG]

How do you specify the minimum width and length of a browser frame whereby if
a user would reduce the size beyond minimum, the relative positioned tags
will no longer move?



Thanks in advance

Not possible to control.

I think I misstated my quesiton. Let me try again.

I meant to say that the windows would resize without restriction, but there
will be a point where scrollbars are going to kick in once the threshold is
surpassed and the layout will not change anymore.

Still not possible, with the exception that with a frame you can set the scrollbars to be automatic,
so if the frame is too small to display the full page content, then scrollbars will appears.

Build your site to a fixed width layout. You could use min-width in
CSS, but this is not supported in Internet Explorer.

Example:
<div style="min-width:600px;">text</div>

min-width does not work with tables.

Sure - this is very common. Create a "flexible" layout which expands to fill
100% of the window (I do this using tables). Then, include enough images,
placed as needed in the table's cells, so that the table cannot shrink
beyond a certain horizontal width (the sum of all the side-by-side images
which create the widest non-shrinkable point). You may need to use "shims"
(1x1 pixel transparent GIFs set to the desired pixel width).
