    Making it Resolution Non-Affected?

    I've seen some webpages coded so that at whatever resolution you view it as, it really has litte or no effect. Sometimes, I use wallpaper that look good only under a certain resolution, how can I "stretech" this out? Thanks in advance.

    there are various ways of doing that...

    with regard to a coded page (non image based) then using percentages will allow the page to adjust to screen resolution.

    in terms of images, my favoured way is to use two images - one for say 800 x 600 rez. and one for 1024 x 768 rez. then you use some javascript to detect the resolution of the screen before the page loads and insert the relevant image. i like this method because it means you don't have to compromise on the image quality by 'stretching' an image for larger resolutions. (of course if the rest of your page isn't designed flexibly then using a larger image may knock other things out of line...)

    hope that helps.
