Ok, here is the issue.

I am trying to make a web page scaleable to all page resolutions but am running into problems. I have it working... sort of. It seems like the WIDTH part of the <TD WIDTH="__"> command isn't working. I know exactly what I am trying to do and it works but with my scaling method it isn't working. Please look at the two links below and view the source codes an then give any suggestions that you have.:

This is the home page that I am trying to fix:

This is what it should look like (WARNING: Only works for screen resolution of 800x600 but you should get the jist of it. It won't look perfect though, still working on it.)

when working with the ability to scale a web page to suit all monitor resolutions, you must work with percentages not fixed widths for your tables. you will also need to cnofigure the image sizes as lower rez monitors will see the image in a bigger scale than those of higher rez

Yes, I already knew all of the above. If you look at the source code the table widths are in percentages and the banner (the only image currently on the page) is configured for all resolutions.

that article might help you with your issue. Also, most have gone around the straight coding to configure the pages by creating diff size pages for the screen resolution and re-directing it there once detected by the browser. It can be a pain but is the most effective way.

I may have to do that, seems like a lot of work but I guess I will manage.

sorry couldn't be of much help but I too have searched far and wide for an easier solution and even the experts have no published scripts to handle that function.
