Hi, im wondering if anyone can help me with, which size is best to use when creating a html page. It use to 800x600 but ive heard its now best to set it at 1024x764?? This is because the majority of people have larger screens.

How do, i create this so its universal and so the index for example fits the window and stays at the same size.

Many thanks

According to my visitors statistic i suggest 1024X768, but if You would use % in the css file, the resolution won't be so important

I would try to design my web pages to suit as many people as possible. I use css and the width:a%; for the width of my body. If you use images, it becomes a bit more tricky, you would have to make your images so that if scaled, they would look good in all resolutions. Here is a link to a great site to learn CSS if you don't already know it.

Good luck, and if you have any other questions, please let us know.

use percentage widths and heights... with CSS only it's gonna be a bit of a problem, but when it works.. it's gonna be great

The only problem with %s is that it makes using images even harder.
