Why do you need to know?
For what resolution you optimize your web pages?
Either none of them or all of them, depending on your viewpoint.

I'm not sure what's so impressive about 1280 by 1024. I've been running
this way over a decade.
>1600 X 1200 (i can't imagine this)
I know people who had 1600 by 1200 four years back, it's hardly new.
>For what resolution you optimize your web pages?
I don't. I figure that the user will have set their normal font size
to whatever's readable for them with whatever resolution they use.

Does it matter? I use different resolutions on different computers.
>For what resolution you optimize your web pages?
Any of them. Generally I try to make sure things are still useful at
narrow widths, so I never have any graphics wider than 600 pixels.

3200 x 1200 or 208 x 208

I design "blog pages" around a typical image max dimension of 640px for
"snapshots" . Bigger if the image requires it. I don't regard a usable
thumbnail as anything under 200px longest.

For text and layout issues, design flexibly. There's just no reason to
restrict a design to a single screen or window size.

For all that you know I could fill up every one of my eight PCI slots
with a graphics card supplying 3200x2400 creating a screen size that is
a bit more than 'Wow!'. I could arrange them in any number of different
aspect ratios from 8:1 to 1:10. (It would cost a fortune though) The web
doesn't have to sit on specific screen resolutions or sizes.

I use 800x600. Higher resolutions require that I resize icons, icon
labels, etc to be readable by my old eyes.

I don't make any assumption about the resolutions used by visitors to my
Web pages. I hope that someone can even view my pages via a cellphone.

According to W3Schools (see
<http://www.w3schools.c om/browsers/browsers_stats. asp>), 17% of visitors
to their site still use 800x600. Well over half use 1024 X 768, and 19%
use higher resolutions. Of course, these statistics are biased by the
audience for that Web site. Since that audience is primarily interested
in Web page development, the 17% using 800x600 is somewhat significant.

Hello all: To deal with the problem of differing user screen resolutions, I've explored: 1) making the pages in PHP, 2) having different pages on the same page and selecting the proper one via JavaScript, and 3) using fancy redirects and forced "back skip" redirects with cookies. Every approach has some fatal flaw as far as I have been able to persue it. My most recent idea is to make multiple style sheets (selectable via javascript...

Hi to all! I created a popup-form which is to appear always right next to the button that was clicked. It worked fine on my computer, but on another computer it pops up at the wrong place. I suppose it depends on the screen resolution. Is there a function which returns the current screen resolution, so I can adjust my popup-form?
