Hi, Jacquie. I like to put my pages in tables, even if it's one big table
cell, and set the table's width to something like 60%. Then it gives right
and left blank area regardless of the viewer's screen resolution.

Screen resolution has nothing to do with anything other than determining the
maximum practical width you can use for your browser.

The critical factor is the browser viewport width.

And if you are going to use a table, set its property to center align.

If you are using tables and layers together, be aware that the tables will
move but the layers will not.

Hi there,
I have used tables to construct the pages - I am not sure what the term
'layers' means - and please don't spit your coffe out when yuou read that
(especially as I've already constructed about 150 pages),
regards,
Jacquie

Luckily, I just finished my last coffee for the day.

If you don't know what layers are then you probably haven't used them! 8)

Just set your table's width to a fixed pixel value and its alignment to
center, or, set its width to a percentage value and its alignment to center.
Either will work....

I like to set my table width to a specific percentage. As I said before, it
remains that percentage of the viewer's screen, regardless of the viewer's
resolution.

Dear Anne and Murray,thanks so much for your answers - am also very pleased
you drank your coffee before reading my last question - you have to forgive
me but living at almost 2000m obviously does things to your grey cells!
Anyway should I set a % value will this stop my pages going all skew whiff
in othere browsers - from what I've ready my pages can look absolutley
perfect in Internet Explorer (hopefully) but when someone goes into the
website using a diffferent browser it can really look like I was half cooked
when constructing the site!
Please tell me my 'baby' suffer excess cellulite splurging out all over the
place when seen in another browser if I do absolutley everything you say!
regards,
JacquieCC

Actually not. It remains that percentage of the browser viewport width, no
matter what the resolution.
