Default sizing - 07-05-2006 , 08:58 PM






I am using layers versus tables on my website - is there anyway to auto-size the display depending on the user's screen resolution? Thanks!!

The user's screen resolution is not what you need to worry about - it's
their browser viewport's width and height.

Using layers will not allow you to create a flexible page easily, no. In
fact using layers as a primary layout method is a big mistake for new users.
Have you visited and read this page?

After reading Murrays' Layer Laws, you may want to visit the Adobe site and
