frontpage resolution problem

K

This question is pertaining to the web page displaying the same for
different resolutions.

I am using Frontpage 2000. My users (or viewers) will probably have various
knowledge of the computer and therefore be viewing my site at various screen
resolutions (800 X 600 and 1024 X 768).My problem is how do I design a site
that will appear exactly the same for both these widths (allowing no word
wrap for sentences, right aligned sentences do not wrap onto the next line
if a smaller resolution is being used, etc). I thought that before I start a
page I would create one large table and then all the contents would be
within that table. Then I could create other tables to position pictures,
etc. But the large table would control the size of the page displayed.Does
this plan of action sound like a solution to the problem? If so, would you
suggest I use the relative width set to 100% or the absolute width set to
pixels (If so, what pixel width would be best for an 800 X 600 resolution
(710 pixels?)). I think this site should be designed based on this
resolution.

Thank you so much for your help. I appreciate all the input I get.

Design the site using a fixed width table of 750 pixels, can be centered on the screen if you want
equal amounts of space on both sides.
