Preventing Scrolling in Browsers

[Guest]

Hi, I have created websites in FP and published successfully. However, when
viewed in browsers, the formatting of the site only retains its original look
when the browser window is a fixed size. Change the size of the browser
window and the formatting goes haywire (this is because the contents of the
page starts to scroll to fit into the new-sized window). What I want is to
keep the original fixed format always: should the browser window size be
changed then the user sees more or less of the contents, not the whole
contents fitted into the new window.
Many thanks, Hugh

Place the content of the page into a main "fixed width" table instead of a table width expressed as
a percentage.

I assume your question addresses horizontal scrolling.

If the site visitor makes his/her window width small
enough, even fixed width pages will scroll. Think about
it. Same logic applies to vertical scrolling.

You create web pages with content. Web browsers display
that content ... all of it.

Another thing to consider is that the viewer can also change the font size
on his browser, and that will also change your layout. The best is to design
your pages so that the layout is not critical.
