Actually, I think my answer was spot on: with a fixed width layout set
to the portrait width, when the user switches to landscape, they'll
end up with the contebnt in a box of the set width, and margins on
each side to cope with the extra width.
EG:
#yourContainer{
width:320px
margin: 0 auto 0 auto;
}
Try that, and you'll see what I mean.
