Subject: RE: [WSG] Actual page width (was: drop down menus)

I generally design to 760px width, that gives you a
fairly big margin of error. The actual Windows
scrollbar is 16px, but it varies across OS/browser,
and you also have to think of collapsed side bars,
etc.

Better to err on the side of narrowness.
