A pixel is a pixel, period. Your issue is screen *resolution*, not monitor
*size*. 1024x768 is precisely the same resolution on a 15" and 42" monitor.

To accommodate all screen resolutions you have two alternatives:

a) set your table width to a fixed set value that can be accommodated at the
lowest expected resolution. Nowadays this is no more than 800 pixels - a
couple of years ago it would have been 640 pixels. This will display the
table data in a fixed-width table, such as used at
http://www.jamesshuggins.com/

b) set your table width to 100%. The table will expand to fill the
available browser width, such as http://vbnet.mvps.org/code/main/index.html.

Got it thanx,but ive found the macromedia size is the problem ive set all the frames to 100 percent ,then the tables to 100 percent,then the cells where i could apply them but the width of the mac file 1000 pixels is to large and i cant get it to resizeif you resize it manually yourself with the mouse it cuts out thr left frame is there a sacrfice to this

I don't know what a "Macromedia" is but I assume it is
some graphics file creted in the Macromedia program.

To reduce its pixel width it would seem to me that you
should go back to that program and see if you can create
a file with a lower pixel width.
