Man I gotta say its getting worse instead of better

So many webmasters not keeping their sites at 800X600 since most of the world surfs at the res makes sence huh check out this tips and tricks Here

Hope this helps - save this code as a html file and load it into your browser - then surf your sites to see if they fit. Saves a lot of time fiddling with your screen res.

Code:

<html>
<head>
<title></title>

<script language="JavaScript"><!--
self.moveTo(0,0)
self.resizeTo(800,600)
//-->
</script>
</head>

<body>
Huwwo
</body>
</html>

I build my sites with front page and any one who uses front page can use the preview in browser option and set it to 800x600

Well, I build my sites with 750px table as base but when I test it with FP at 760x420 (800x600 maximized) horizontal scrollbar appears.. Something is fucked here... actually I do it by opening 'favorites' tab and checking if it's displayed properly (using 1024x768 now)

Make the table 750 wide does not mean it's gonna end up 750 wide

If you throw 4 200x200 images in a 750 wide table, you'll get a table that's over 750.

If you make the cell padding or spacing too big, you're go over 750.

If you put 3 cells in there that are 275 wide each, you'll go over 750.

If you put a border on the table that's 5 pixels big, you'll go over 750.

Be careful

i think thats the most common mistake the people make with their free sites having the tables wrong, well having the tables 750 but indeed put in 4 things in from 200 you have a problem

Which, dammit, is where I am stalled right now....It is really hard to get the tables right and use the recips you are required to use to get listed, when the recips are sized a certain way, and changing the table size of said recip makes it display incorrectly, which won't get you listed either....So, all I can add I suppose is that it is frustrating on both sides these days.....

i make the tables of the linkback itself smaller, then it will fit.
