HTML - 955x600 Best Webiste Size?
This list shows the optimal dimensions for a website to target for at various resolutions:
600 x 300 (640 x 480 Maximized) 760 x 420 (800 x 600 Maximized) 795 x 470 (832 x 764 Maximized) 955 x 600 (1024 x 768 Maximized) It's a list which Dreamweaver also uses. I was wondering how they came up with such a list. For example: I've taken a screenshot of a browser window. 1024x768, maximized with a right scrollbar. When I place a 955x600 graphic on top of that it fits nicely between the top address bar and the bottum status bar. But when I also place it against the right scrollbar, that leaves about 52 pixels on the left. So what is it that takes about that width they might be taking into account to end up with a with of 955? A typical IE/FF sidebar is much wider than that, so that can't be it. Not that I intend to use it, but I was curious what it could be cause this 955x600 for a maximised 1024x768 window is mentioned quite often. Similar TutorialsHello all, I noticed there are more than a handful of different scripting languages, markup languages, and many different methods to building a modern day website. If im starting from scratch and I would like to build a professional website such as yahoo (homepage), craigslist, e-commerce, etc... A website that allows users to create their own accounts and such, what should I need to know? Is learning HTML + CSS really a good starting point? Is HTML, CSS, CGI + Perl sufficient to having the tools needed to create a good website? Realisticly, do professional web-designers really sit down and write code to create a website or do they use some fancy third-party application that basically does all the work for them? I have always wondered about these questions any help will be greatly appreciated. i have 2 frames in my parent frame say 1.htm ie left frame and 2.htm ie right frame now this 1.htm is quite a long frame and has a scrollbar and 2.htm is a short one i dont the scroll bar beside my frame 1 but want it to be for my entire parent window ie i wont to scroll both my left and right frames together how do i do that Hi! I have a page that contains a text area. What I want it to do is to change its size according to the size of the browser window. How can I make it do that? I did it once but just can't seem to remember how I did it. Thanks All: Working to update a previously designed website. Original design uses an <img> tag to create a top banner and another <img> tag to create a side banner. In each case there are mapped coordinates on each banner as links for the subsequent pages. Basic page design is as follows: Code: <table> <tr> <td> <img usemap="Map1"> <map name="Map1"> <area> <area> <area> </map> </td> </tr> </table> <table> <tr> <td> <img name="Map2"> <map> <area> <area> <area> </map> </td> <div> ***PAGE CONTENT*** </div> <tr> <table> The challenge is that the [PAGE CONTENT] varries in length througout the site causing some pages to be much longer or shorter than others. This causes some inconsistencey in the relationship between the side banners height and the page content. In other words in some cases the banner is exceptionally longer than the page content and the reader must scroll past significant "dead-space" before being brought to the lowest mapped links in the side banner; or... ...in some cases the side banner is significantly shorter than the page content causing the banner image to appear "poorly-fit" to the page design. I considered altering the 2nd table instance in the above design so that the banner is carried in a <td> tag that is adjacent to the page content and hopefully to allow the tag carrying the image to size relative to the <td> tag carring the content.... Code: <table> <tr> <td> <img usemap="Map1"> <map name="Map1"> <area> <area> <area> </map> </td> </tr> </table> <table> <tr> <td size="100%"> <img name="Map2"> <map> <area> <area> <area> </map> </td> <td size="100%" > <table> ***PAGE CONTENT*** </table> </td> <tr> <table> The problem I've found with this is that as the content size causes the image to "flex", either readablilty or image quality or both are effected, AND the mappings become inconsistent as the image coordinates constantly change. I've considered 2 solutions and am leaning toward one, but thought I'd post this and see if there are better ideas I'm overlooking. One idea was to add additional table rows inside the [PAGE CONTENT] table presumably creating a "defalut" page size that would never be smaller than a standard for the side banner. Problem: larger page sizes are still a problem as are the changing map coordinates My other idea was to return to the original page design listed first above and again settle on a standard side banner "height"... ...any page that was significantly longer than that height would be split to 2 or more pages with a [NEXT>>] button at the bottom of the page navigating to the additional content. Problem: ...possible complications splitting content... Benefit: ...consistent page design that allows a consistent side banner with navigable links... Question for the group: Does this sound reasonable? Are there better alternatives I am overlooking? THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR ALL INPUT!! I'd like my div to automatically expand when there is more text but I don't want it smaller than a certain size. Is this possible? Please look at the following site to see what I mean and click on the Writing tab. (The right hand div is what I'd like to fix--you see the text is cut off.) Thank you so much! http://rkgrant.110mb.com/rkghome2.html Is there a way to make buttons larger? I have seen code for it but I am not sure how to use it.. Here is the a partial of the code I am using. Code: <form> <input type="button" value="Reset" onclick="document.applets[0].reset();"> </form> I don't know what part of this html is making the pictures in my table compressed width wise but if someone could help that would be fantastic. Here is the code: <style type="text/css"> body,table, td, li, p, div, textarea {font-family:Tahoma; font-size:12pt; color:ffffff; font-weight:none;} table, td { background-color:transparent; border:none;

Sorry I'm such a dummy at html..... Hello everyone again, I have searched everywhere to get the info to make the website adapt to the resolution size. I can not understand how it works. Will someone please be able give me the info on how to make the website adapt to the resolution. Thanks for all of your help Ok, my website is best viewed at 1024x768, is there any way that i can somehow encode a popup that gives the message and an option for it to automaticaly change the screen resoloution to 1024x768? Many Thanks, Narc How can I get the size of each frameset . I need to get the size wen the user drags any frameset.? Plz help me. Here's my code: Code: <div align="center" style="background-color:#4D4D4D;width:1000px;height:30px;border:1px solid #00137F;filter:progid:DXImageTransform. Microsoft.Glow(color=#00137F)"> I can't get the DIV to change size. I know I haven't put 'Width="" height="" ' but that doesn't work. It's strange because usually I would've thought that would work. Hello Folks, Okay, I am trying to finally master this. I am working with a CSS Joomla layout that has some flash as main content (for images). I would like for this layout to resize based on the visitors screen size. I've played around with the % in width and so-forth. However my embedded Flash starts to scoot around the page as I change the size of the window. Can someone guide me on exactly how to do this so that "all" the info scales and stays in place. I am assuming that there will be an issue for the site getting really big if the person uses a massive screen (say 27inch plus) In that case how do you limit the size? Any help will be most appreciated. My website will have a picture that is cut in 3 parts (see below for the chop up). now my question is. I want the sides to gradually disapear if the browser window becomes smaller, as the main part of the website is displayed on the middle part of the website Say that the total size of the image is 1300px. and the respectively from left to right. the picture is chopped up in 250px - 800px - 250px. now if the browser is wide enough it would just show the whole 1300px of the website. however if the browser is at most able to show 1000px of the website, the side would reduce corespondingly showing the website as 100px - 800px - 100px. and that offcourse that the picture on the left side doesn't look weird. I hope everything is still clear. it bassically means that of the 250px of the left picture, the picture would be cut up from left to right, rather than the default right to left. thus cutting 150px away from the left and not the right. leaving the colors in the picture below, continue on flowing like they should. How would I go about doing this? How do you make the website The same size on different resolution? Thanks for all of your help. A simple problem when I populate my combo using javascript my combo size changes (Problem is only on) Ie works ok in ff.

Hello, im trying to set my screen size with a div tag to 1024x768 any help would be very helpful and i'd be very thankful hey all, working on some simple coding that is giving me trouble. here is what i have so far: HTML Code: <div style = 'position:absolute; width:auto; background-color:#DFD2FC;padding:10px;'> <div style = 'position:relative; background-color:#B6FCCC;'> <p>pair</p> <div style = 'position:relative; float:left; background-color:#FCE4B6; margin:5px; padding:5px;'> <p style = 'align-text:left'>1<br>2<br>moo<br>meow</p> </div> <div style = 'position:relative; float:left; background-color:#FCE4B6; margin:5px; padding:5px;'> <p style = 'align-text:left'>3<br>4<br>sdf<br>asdf<br>sdf</p> </div> </div> </div> however, it's not behaving correctly. i'd like the 'green' div to change in size according to the text within the 'yellow' divs. and then the 'purple' div should change size compared to the size of the 'green' div. i hope that's clear... any help? |
