Changing width so that it fits 800x600
 

My site looks decent at 1024x768, however most of my customers use 800x600 res, (according to my bosses) How can I cahnge my width to accomodate this?

Site: 216.75.30.97

800x600? Are you serious? Your stats actually say that? In general, the 800x600 crowd represents less than 10% of the market right now...not recommended to optimize for that resolution anymore. But if you absolutely have to, you simply change the Table.Container class to the width you want.

I am not a fan of 800x600 either but because the main guy (he's 53) has vision issues, he insists I code it to 800x600...even though i tell him most use 1024x768

Boss is always right eh? Unfortunate, as that severely restricts the number of products you can show 'above the fold'. Tell him he'll make more money by being able to display more products...perhaps that will change his mind :)

I need to do this as well.

.container only has a height attribute. Where is the width being set for the middle cell?

What about adding a width to table.container in skin1/skin1.css...

TABLE.Container {
HEIGHT: 100%;
width:800px; /* example width */
}

Thanks.
Giving this some thought...
I don't want to hardcode the width.

I still want the 100% that appears to be set in rectangle_top.tpl.

However.. the (center) content cell between the navigation menus on the left and the login menu and cart on the right appears to be hard set.

On my home.php page I don't have anything in the middle except for a few words at the moment and I am unable to shrink the brower down beyond a certain point.

This point is still too far out for 800x600.
:roll:

Re: Changing width so that it fits 800x600
 

Sorry, I am confused (which isn't hard). Is the layout something like this? ( See Attached )...

page:100%
left column: fixed.
right column: fixed.
center column: 100%
center column content: fixed

If it is some other way, could you elaborate? A fav website/link - any way you see fit.

Interesting where is that fixed 300px set?
That might be what I am talking about.

Re: Changing width so that it fits 800x600
 

I created it. I added an extra table inside the center column. But I think I understand your problem better now. When you resize the browser smaller than 800 and there is no content it should still be fluid and have no horizontal scrollbars, is this correct?

...If so, I think something like a dialog box with an image, or a logo, or the footer stops it from being smaller (likely to be a combo).
