When I finalize the design I will ensure that on 800x600 no scrolling will
be required. I have already desgined the page in a "liquid" design, but
after much consideration I have decided it would be preferable to have a
static size, one that fits perfectly on 800x600 screens, and when viewed on
larger ones it would view the same, however it would have equal blank
margins on either side. I have seen many pages designe din this manner, and
they have the results I am looking for. While I appriciate the concerns, it
would be helpful to provide a solution along with suggestions?
