How to Make My Web Site Fit on Other Peoples' ComputerScreens |
Friends tell me my web site ( www.worldoceanconsulting.com ) does not display
properly on their screens; that they have to scroll to the right to read and
see the whole page. ( It looks fine on my monitor, with a 1400X1050 display,
using either Firefox 1.0 or MIE 6.0 browsers). I tried to rectify this by
resizing the document window, but DW won't let me change the size from 1024X768
to, say, 800 X600. There is a DW note saying you can't resize a Document
window when it is maximized in the integrated workspace, which mine appears to
be, but I don't know to change this, i.e. 'minimize' it. Does anyone have any
ideas as to rectify the problem, especially after taking a look at my site, as
well as the source code, perhaps? Is it perhaps a question of changing the
margins?; if so, what should they be set at?

All pages on your site shrink down to less then 300px on my computer when I
resize the window (IE and Netscape) so your friends might have a problem... are
they using their PDA's to view your site? Not sure what your problem is...

Hello G.Graham,
You may be experiencing the same thing that I am going through at my office.
Please read the thread that I posted and see if this may be what your
experiencing... if so, I have received no help from macromedia or microsoft...
not yet anyway. (You can find the thread by searching 'Dreamweaver and Windows
XP problem', or by author, corrystudios.com.)

"This is a user to user forum."
... so has any user ever come across this problem before?! I assume they have
since you say...
"This question is asked and answered 10 times a day."
"If you want to search for such commonly asked questions and their answers go
here -"
... o.k. I'll go there and see what I can find on this ...problem.

I would say the OP needs to design his site so that is is either
flexible or so that it fits on the majority of viewport sizes.

Steve - you do know there is a very easy way to protect your graphics from
being downloaded and not have to distroy the image with those copyright tags
defacing them - right?
