Hey guys, I'm having a problem with my page resizing for different resolutions. How can I lock a page, so it doesn't try to resize with different resolutions?

Umm, what?

You can't change the number of pixels on a screen if that's what you're asking

:confused:

How about a link to the page?

Only works with simple things sadly :(


<-- Still waiting for full CSS support :(:+

As long as things are in tables, it should be fine. As for CSS, I'm still waiting for it to be standardized, let alone supported fully.

options (change 700 to whatever width you prefer):
1. put your page contents in a <div> block, and set the width to a certain width using CSS
eg:
html page: <div id="pageContents"> ...... </div>
css file: #pageContents { display: block; width: 700px;}

2. put your page contents in <table> (not what i'd do)
eg: <table width="700" align="center"> ...... </table>

CSS1/2 IS standardized by W3C. The main problem here is crappy support by a browser used by over 90% of web surfers.

Divs > Tables when things work

I think stndn has the best idea
