Hi
I hear to set the css width property at 774px which is good for all
resolutions. What are you using?
Thanks a lot

Doesn't work on my PDA, and with my large display, you waste a lot of
screen space.

You heard wrong.

No hard-coded width at all. That *is* good for any resolution.

Agreed, however, it can be good to set a max-width (in ems, of course)
to prevent overly long lines of text. 35em for paragraphs is usually a
good max. A multi-column layout would be wider.
px is never a good unit for page width unless the content is all
graphics, which probably raises another batch of issues.

No, never. There's never any need to set "all around site width".
If you have a column of text in there, then set max-width on that (in
ems) so as to limit the longest line length. But set it on the _column_
where the text is, not the overall page.

At 744 pixels wide, I will have to scroll a few screen widths on my handheld
in order to read each line. I hate having to do that. Also at 744 pixels
wide, I will have about a 400 pixel wide margin in my normal viewport. I
hate having to scroll vertically, when I have all that unused white space.
Set the width at either what pleases you, or let it flow to fill the users
viewports. The choice is yours, however I am more likely to stay and visit
your site if it flows.

If you have 2 columns of text, what's wrong with setting an overall page
width in ems to limit both columns in one shot? If you do that, you can
center the page horizontally so it looks nicer. If you only constrain
paragraph or individual column widths, you end up with unbalanced empty
space that looks weird in larger windows.

Make that max-width, not width.

Oddly enough, I found it difficult, using Google, to find a list of
best-of sites based on the quality of their css packages.
So I'd ask. Does anyone know of particularly good sites which are in
good measure because of their creative and useful css designs? I'm
aware of Zen Garden and a few others. So don't bother with those. And
I hope I don't get replies from people with a 'tin ear' and no design
sense. Good sites. Good pages. That's...
