Is there a way to adjust the size of a web page according to the pixel size of the browser’s screen?
My web pages are more or less how I want ‘em on a 1280 x 1024 pixel screen, but are very unwieldy at 1024 x 768.
I know it can be done in Visual Basic, I was hoping some one could point the way in HTML.

But with a little thought I found http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/#tutorials and I think there may be something in there... thx again.

try using "ems" and "percents(%)" for you sizing as both of these offer relative sizing.
