I wanna know so that when I make my web page otta HTML I can make it fit for the most ppl.
Posted by: southernlady
But when you write your page, write it to 1024x768 and then check it in 800 x 600 to see how it looks. Those are the two most used sizes. Alos write in Firefox and the check in IE and other browsers. Don't code to JUST IE alone.
And I hope you aren't using FP as your coder. Liz

1280 x 1024 but make the page to 600 x 800 because you dont want people scrolling sideways

I will make it for 1024x768.
I dont have(or know anything about) Firefox.
What is FP?
I plan on using the little HTML that I kinda know to make my page. I wish I knew JAVA but I dont.
If you would like to delete this thread southernlady, you may.

oh, FP... front page? no... the HTML coding I will be doing will all be done in note pad.
Posted by: southernlady
FP is FrontPage, a wysisyg editor that many people make the mistake of using.
You need to download and use Firefox so that you can see how 5-7% of the world see web pages...coding in IE alone is actually a little hard on the rest of us (I know, I used a template that was designed for IE and it funked up my web site really badly!)
If you would like my list of html sites, I'll be glad to give them to you. Oh, and I can't delete the poll, I'm not a moderator on this section. :) liz

Just a few questions if you don't mind:
1.) I have a part of my web page where some text will be updated regularly. I don’t really wanna open the *.html file and update the text in it. I would rather have the web page grab text out of a simple text file(that I would prefer to update regularly) and then insert that text into the web page as if it where typed into the *.html file(not in an edit box or something). Is there code for doing something like this?
2.) I want some kind of guest book thing that ppl can view and / or sign. Where could I get code for something like that?
3.) What is a simple free counter? Some of them have a whole bunch of info they gather, I just want one that simply counts hits. I would prefer to have one that is text based rather than image based.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If you want, I'll make you a PHP/mySQL script to do this. You'll need a mySQL database to do it, tho.
"2.) I want some kind of guest book thing that ppl can view and / or sign. Where could I get code for something like that?"
Again, I could code this for you :P
"3.) What is a simple free counter? Some of them have a whole bunch of info they gather, I just want one that simply counts hits. I would prefer to have one that is text based rather than image based."
... guess what?
Ahh.. I can't actually believe this thread. You people never hear of the percentage character? <td width="1000"> would be perfect for a viewer on 1000 res, but for someone on a 100 res.. well, yeah.
<td width="100%">
Muuuuuuuuuuuuuch better :P Makes everyone happy.
As for FrontPage - what's bad about it? I don't allow FP ext. on my servers because they're a security hazzard, but I don't see what problems FP has as a WYSIWYG coder?
EDIT: LOL! I can't believe these forums support full HTML :S

What is a SQL?
how would you?
what is this width stuff?
Posted by: Terencentanio
Lol...
SQL = structured query language.
I am saying, I will make the scripts and such for the stuff you want.
Also, this thread was started to ask how big some resolutions are for making a website to suit the most common res. The answer is simple... you just use percentages instead of pixels.

I would love to have you make the things that I want, but, they would have to be things that I could copy and paste into my *.html files.

I know but, the style of page I am using uses both pixels and percents.
I use pixels to lock sertan things places and percents when I dont care what goes where.
Posted by: Terencentanio
Hmm.. I don't think W3C would like that :P
If you want dynamic pages, you gotta use a SSL. I say PHP/SQL, because that's all I really know :P ASP is a waste of time.
I am saying, I will make the PHP scripts for you. You'll _never_ get what you're asking for just from HTML.... you could use PHP/Perl to generate HTML pages, but you'll need some SSL whatever the weather

on mine 1280 x 960
my voodoo card can go to 2048 x 1536
Posted by: waynejkruse10
most radeon cards can go up to 2048 x 1536 if the monitor supports it.
Posted by: Vormund
1024 x 768 on laptop, 1280 x 1024 on desktop (most my monitor supports) :)

Anything smaller with windows xp is too big.
Posted by: waynejkruse10
every computer at our school runs at 800x600. It has been locked to that res. If its a 14" Monitor, 15" Monitor or 17" Monitor its all 800x600.
Posted by: Apokalipse
I run this system at 1600x1200
and on my computer, when I had it running (dead motherboard now) I ran it at 2048x1536 (my TNT2 could support that)
Posted by: waynejkruse10
What monitor was that on?
Technically, my res is 2432*1024
Posted by: Apokalipse
a 21" Trinitron CRT which I got for $380 AU at a swap meet
Posted by: waynejkruse10
cool.
Posted by: nuke
mine is about 1152x864. its a flat screen also.
Posted by: waynejkruse10
thats the res on my secondary 17" crt so it fits in with my 1280 res on my 19"
Posted by: beedubaya
1280x1024, my LCD native resolution.

[color=darkred]1152x864 @ 100Hz at this moment.[/color]
Posted by: Alex81388
I run 1600x1200 on all my comps, but this forum of course is full of people who use more of there computer than the average person. Average web size? I'd go with 1024x768 for the internet browsing category.

Posted by: beedubaya
I can't imagine running a desktop at only 1024x768, I know that is the most common resolution for gaming, but its just too small for a desktop. You gotta have at least 1280x1024.

my resolution should be 800*600 on this horrible 14-inch monitor. But i set it to 1024*768, so i see more content on the web.
Posted by: thebleakness
Im so used to the 1024x1280 that now when i go onto another computer with a smaller reso, it annoys me. Everything is just way too big for me. :confused: :p
Posted by: talldude123
i cant stare at a computer lower than 800*600, or lower than 85Hz. That hurts my eyes.
Posted by: thebleakness
I think mine is at 60hz, its the highes this monitor will go at this reso. I havent had any problems with it this low.
