Wonder why they want you to do that? Is it to adjust the size of the font so that it is readable on higher resolution screens or is it to change the width of the content but keep the fonts, etc. the same size?
If it is the first reason that would aid in accessibility. If it is the second it is a dumb idea since few people with high resolutions screens browse full screen. I know I never do voluntarily and hate when sites maximize my window with 'onload' scripts. In addition even those who do browse full screen like my partner don't always have the full size of the browser available. He's always got either his history or favorites bar open which effectively reduces the width of his 1024 monitor to the width of an 800x600 monitor. It can be done but takes a combination of server side and client side scripting and frequently causes more problems than just designing a liquid site in the first place. Cheryl D.

I am under the impression that this cannot be done from the client side. Am I right? Could it be done from the server? ____ � The WDVL Discussion List from WDVL.COM � ____ To Join wdvltalk, Send An Email To: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Send Your Posts To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To change subscription settings to the wdvltalk digest version: http://wdvl.internet.com/WDVL/Forum/#sub ________________ http://www.wdvl.com _______________________ You are currently subscribed to wdvltalk as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
