Can I get my webpage to fit different monitor sizes?

I am having some trouble with formatting the info on my website because the layout looks right on the computer I have built the site on. But, when I check the site on different computers there is a lot of scrolling, and things not spaced or centered how I initially placed them…I am assuming because of monitor size differences. I am not sure how to work around this with WebsiteTonight. I am sure that there is no fix all to make it fit exactly right to every screen size and resolution, but I would think that there should be some middle ground here. If anyone can provide any help with this, I would really appreciate it! Thanks!

The only way to really control this aspect is via CSS. With that being said, it’s not really recommended because it will most likely distort the images and text on the site, which could be worse to a visitor than having to scroll around.

If it’s something you really want to explore you can use your favorite search engine to research how to control height and width variables via CSS. You can use the following instructions for editing the CSS:

@ycimagery – The CSS I provided on that other thread would not work for your situation.

The major problems I am seeing is from absolute positioned blocks, these are the blocks (yellow outline) dragged outside of the containers (blue blocks). If you were to keep the content blocks inside of the containers there would be more flexibility with the content adjusting to fit the screen.

Hi, I have the same problem, when I started to work on building the webpage, the sample could fit on the monitor. Since I have made some changing,the page doesn’t fit anymore on the screen and I need to scroll it down to see all the information on it.
How can I make it fit on the screen?
Thx.
