Newbie needing template

Hi guys,

I'm designing a website for a mate and I remember a while back when I had a go with Dreamweaver, if I were to design it on my computer using 1024x768 resoltuion, once on the net if someone with a different resolution viewed it, it was either too small or too big (obviously depending on which resolution they were running). Now are there any templates that I can use that will automatically readjust everything to fit their chosen resolution? Much appreciated.

Cheers

The solution is actually in your code. If you want a fluid site meaning it expands depending on the width of the users' screen res, then you need to use % as units for your widths.

If you are going for a fixed site, then the total width of the site should go over 800px.

Cheers for the reply. See i'm a real newbie with web designing that sounds like French to me Do you have any 'fluid' templates that I could use?

Look in the beginners resources section, there's a sticky there about HTML and CSS layouts. In there, there's a "how" section where you can find some example layouts.

Thanks a lot for that. I will look into the code and try learn it from that rather than just nicking the code
