You didn't see anything to help in the urls provided to you?
You want your contents not to hang to the left and leave
emptiness to the right. You want not for it just to be centred
(that is easy to fix) but for it to expand somehow to fill the
screen when the screen is at the higher res you mention. You
don't want to give a url? So let me guess:
Your site is basically a big picture or a series of pictures or a
table with cells in which there are pictures or bits of pictures.
You want this whole show to expand and look good on the more
detailed resolution?
There is a way to sort of achieve this but it is not something to
be recommended. To see why, you would need to read up on the sort
of urls provided and more.
About the way. If it ONE big picture, your site, reprepare it in
an image editor to be bigger. That is to be 1024px wide. And then
in specifying for it your html/css just put <img
style="width:100%" src="" alt="this is my home page, if you can't
or don't want to see pictures, sorry, this site is not for you">
If it is a lot of pictures and in table cells, then you will need
to calculate the proportional width of each picture and possibly
of all the spacer gifs (pictures of nothing used by some software
to lay things out).
If you have text involved then it gets more complicated still and
you need to provide a url and read the urls provided.
