Screwed up at 800x600. Client's Mad. Help!

You said it yourself--it looked bad when you looked at it
with your 800x600 browser. That would have been the time
to fix it before showing it to your employer!

-----Original Message-----
My client painfully made me aware that parts of his web
site looks bad (at his 800x600 screen resolution)? I
preview in this browser size while in FP and all looks
fine (but I see the problems when I go to 800x600 in my
actual browser).
One of the primary problems is when he clicks the first
image (Business Builder package) on this page:

Thanks Steve H. You are a big help to those of us who are new with FrontPage. Some of us bring our stupid questions here because this is where Microsoft suggests we can get help...not someone who wants to make us feel worse

By the way, had you read closer, I said when I checked it in FP, all was well. It was only AFTER the fact that I actually changed my Explorer browser and saw the problems. FrontPage says I should not have to do that because you are supposed to be able to preview different browser sizes in FP.

When you chose File Menu | Preview in Browser did you select to preview at 800 x 600?

I do. There appears to be a problem because it looks the same even though I am supposed to be looking at different sizes. In fact, when I use the F12 shortcut key to see it in 800x600, it has the same look as larger resoltions.

That would be correct as your resolution can not be change just for the specific window, so all you
are seeing the amount of content that will fit in the browser window at the size selected. You would
actually have to change your screen resolution.

Why is it that this happens? Moreover, is there anything I can do to go back and repair the problem? Thanks.
