Resizing websites to optimize for the most common screen size

Hi,
I have recently designed and produced my first website.  When designing it I looked at the pixel sizes of the range of screens in our office (no widescreen), and I have designed it to suit.  The website fits fine on our screens in our office, but when it has been viewed on some home PC's, it is too large to fit on the screen and you have to scroll across to view the entire website.  Is this because the home PC's screens are older and smaller pixel size?
  My website is designed at 1160px width / 805px height.
- Is there a way I can easily optimize the website to enable it to fit all screens?
- If not, what would you suggest the best dimensions are to enable non-widescreen viewers to view it correctly.
- My website is approx 60 pages, is there an easy way to make this change, with out re-designing the entire websites.
Thanks
Andy

I just had to do this for a site just recently, but in reverse, but admittedly, not 60 pages  :-)  It was originally designed for 800px wide browser window - so it was set at 760px width.
I had used a template (dwt) original, so it was only a matter of increasing the size of the various elements in my original png file (header, body bg image that repeated down the page and the footer).
Because I'd used a CSS layout, it was very easy to change.  Opened the DWT file, opened the css file and make the size adjustments to the various divs etc., and hey presto a larger size website  :-)
If you post a link to your page, so people can see how you've constructed it, may help get you some advice on how to make changes so it fits approx 960-980px for a 1024 window size.

  • Why ?? on EVERY web search do I get a message saying " Firefox has prevented this web site ". These are trusted sites for the most part

    I reloaded the Free version of Firefox browser about two months ago. Since then EVERY TIME I browse, with just a few exceptions, Firefox displays a message bar across the top of the screen saying " Firefox has prevented this site" with the message there is a check box asking "ALLOW?" When I check the ALLOW most times I get the web page BUT on some occasions Firefox just continues to block the page.
    The sites and pages I am referring to here are for the most TRUSTED places.
    This has been happening since I reloaded. It was NOT an issue prior to that.
    It is VERY annoying and I have since switched to Google Chrome.
    If you can offer some reasoning or explanation as to why this is happening I will be appreciative.
    Thank You. mLowe51

    If you find a version of Firefox that isn't free, let us know because that likely would be a scam...
    It would be helpful to know the rest of that phrase because two things come to mind but I might be missing the one you're actually seeing.
    * Popup windows: Firefox will display an infobar like that when a popup window is blocked. If you don't ever want to block popups, you can turn that feature off in the Options dialog:<br><br>"3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Content > ''Uncheck'' Block pop-up windows
    * Redirect: Firefox has an accessibility feature that blocks some redirects. You can unblock them in the Options dialog:<br><br>"3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced > General mini-tab > ''Uncheck'' Warn me when websites try to redirect or reload the page
    Is either of those the solution?

  • In your experience what are the most common errors in binding files when deploying?

    As the title suggest I'm interested in discussing the most common errors in binding files when deploying.
    Reason for this is that I'm currently working on a Powershell script that can parse a binding file and create a reader friendly report (rtf format) with various information.
    But the main purpose for this script is to find common errors in the binding file used. And so far these are the ones I've thought of:
    - Tracking enabled for either services or the pipelines they are using (if it's a binding meant for Prod).
    - Orchestrations logical ports not having any ports bound to them.
    - URI containing certain words that's not ok. For example if a binding meant for Prod contains the word "test" anywhere in the URI then that should be reported in the created rtf report. This also applies vice versa.
    So now I need your help with coming up with more ideas on common errors that need to be looked after and reported on if found! 
    Additional features the report should contain:
    - Listing the details of each orchestration, send port, receive port along with their associated receive location(s). To better understand and get a quick overview on exactly what settings are planned to be deployed. Especially the "TransportTypeData"
    section which otherwise can be quite tedious to read.
    - List each unique host instance, so that I can easier see directly which ones might need a restart after an import.
    I'd appreciate if you can come up with any more features that should be included in this script.
    /Christian @ IntegrationAdmin.com

    Filter on send port not on the same line as the Filter tag.
    This one is a nice one, I ran into it several times. Mostly after copy/paste of a port definition for a binding file, because Visual Studio is formatting after paste the XML in a way the filter will get invalid. This leads to a cryptic error
    during importing the binding.

  • How would I find the most common value every nth row in a column

    SCENARIO 1
    I have a column with a series of numbers in c1:c1000 as follows:
    2
    2
    3
    1
    1
    4
    2
    3
    1
    2...
    and I would like to find the most common value for every nth (in this case, second) row.
    SCENARIO 2
    Originally, I created a separate column in J and used this to find a value of 0 or 1 via a filter to label the rows odd or even. I was then going to create two separate columns, one for even rows of data and another for odd rows of data to separate them and perform functions on each column. But I do not know how to copy just the filtered data to one of the new columns to apply the MODE function (or any other for that matter).
    Perhaps my question should be: after applying a filter, how do i copy just the visible filtered data of every nth row to a new column in my spreadsheet while retaining the original column with all rows of data? 
    BACK TO SCENARIO 1
    If I do not need to go through this effort, I would just apply the MODE function (or AVERAGE or SUM) to every nth row in the original data column.

    Since Index and Offset were already taken, I used INDIRECT(ADDRESS()) in my example.
    Here's how I approached it:
    Expressions are as follows...
    Data Subset, Column A, Row 2: =IF(StartingRow :: A, 1, NSelector :: $A)
    Subsequent rows in Column A: =IF(ROW()<COUNT(Input :: $B)/NSelector :: A:$A+2, A2+NSelector :: $A, "")
    Data Subset, Column B, Rows 3
    throuth the last: =IFERROR(INDIRECT(ADDRESS(A+1, 2, ,,"Input")), "")
    Stats, Column A, Row 2: =IFERROR(MODE(Data Subset :: B), "No Mode")
    Stats, Column B, Row 2: =COUNTIF(Data Subset :: B, A)
    Lots of ways to skin this cat.

  • What are the most common questions in the forums?

    I have my own ideas about what are the questions we see asked over and over and over again in here. Everyone post your ideas here so we can compile a FAQ and maybe post it somewhere (Virum, your new site? :) )

    Please do my homework/coursework/think for me
    This has to be by far the most common type of question asked on the forums.
    Classpath questions
    HashCode questions
    Pointer vs Reference Debate (totally spurious but people spew 100's of pages arguing about something that is perfectly obvious)
    A very good Thread that is probably 1000's of entries long by now is the
    "How to get your questions answered promptly" one (or however this is called). A recap of that published somewhere would be of tremendous value, especially if it was presented as a page you had to go through before landing in the forums to post your latest "Java Challenge" aka "do my coursework" on the boards.

  • Finding the most common value in an array of enums

    Hello,
    I'm looking for an elegant way of finding the most common value in an array of enums
    My enum being:
    0 - Close
    1 - Open
    2 - Undefined
    For instance, if my array contains:
    Close, Close, Open, Close, Close, Open.
    The most common value would be "Close"
    I have created a very customized VI that allows me to obtain the desired result, but I'm really not proud of doing it this way, simply because I would have to modify it if I were to add a new value to my enum...
    If someone can share some ideas to enlighten me, I would REALLY appreciate it.
    Thanks in advance!
    Jorge
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Here is the variant using the search method. This method will run N-1 times where N is the number of ENUM elements. Yes, it is a bit more complex than the brute force method but it would execute fairly quickly. The sort would probably be the time consuming task.

  • What is the most common way of deployment of SSIS package?

    Hi everybody,
    I am new to SSIS. I have created an SSIS package in development server. I want to deploy it to production server. What is the most common and efficient way of deployment? Please let me know the procedure in details.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Anujit,
    SSIS deployment is nothing but just to copy the .dtsx files from DEV to PROD. (Either file system or SQL Server)
    File system deployement is the common way of SSIS deployment
    1. File system deployment using manifest file
    http://sivasqlbi.blogspot.in/2012/05/ssis-step-by-step-process-of-creating.html
    2. SQL Server deployment using manifest file
    http://bharath-msbi.blogspot.in/2012/04/step-by-step-ssis-package-deployment.html
    3. By using Command line

  • What are the most common designpaterns?

    Hello!
    I have been working with a designpatern before. But i have only used one of them.
    I have heard that there are many diffrent kind of paterns.

    Hello!
    I have been working with a designpatern before. But i have only used one of them.If you've written Java, you've used a lot of patterns without knowing it. They're built into the language.
    I have heard that there are many diffrent kind of paterns.The first "design patterns" book, and arguably the best, is "Design Patterns" by Gamma, Johnson, Helm, and Vlissides. I'd read that if you haven't.
    Which are the most common? Is EJB a kind of designpatern?EJB itself isn't a "pattern", but it uses them. Since EJBs are based on RMI, it's using Proxy every time you call an EJB. The stub is a proxy for the remote object that lets your client speak to it as if it was in the same address space.
    And does anybody know any good internetpage about designpaterns?Core J2EE Patterns IS excellent. Doug Schmidt has done a lot of patterns work, too.

    Since purchasing the Note 3 in October i have had nothing but issues. I went through all the steps and eventually I was sent a different phone, which was working for the most part until the recent upgrade. Now I am back to the old issues, no service, it actually says not moblie network available, when everyone else in my family has coverage and are on my plan with iphones. I am missing text messages and dropping calls left and right. This is unacceptable for the cost of this phone and my service. I have did a hard reset etc. What else can I do??

    Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
    This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

    Thank you

    Disable or remoce the Calendar, that is creating these events, Terry.
    To find out, which calendar is creating these events, ctrl-click on one of the events and select "Get Info".
    In the Info panel click the color icon in the upper right corner to find out the calendar, that created this event.
    Then reveal the "Calendars" Sidebar (press the "Calendars" button in the toolbar) and select the Calendar, ctrl-click it and delete the calendar or disable it.

  • Feeling like a total fool, now that I have solved for the most part Audigy LS probl

    As the subject says, I feel like a total fool for having for the most part solved my problems with the Audigy LS. I have to say I'm sorry to Creative Labs for being so hot headed in my previous posts, as I got to thinking about it logically and decided to try a few more things before I gave up entirely.
    Uninstalled the drivers/software and moved it to the last PCI slot on my motherboard, which hel
    ps.
    Didn't mess with Dolby Digital Decoding, which is off by default when the drivers are installed.
    Set PCI Latency to 64 in the bios of my motherboard, which helps, for some reason the card doesn't like a PCI Latency of 32, beats me why it doesn't.
    I do know the Audigy LS, will slow down to a crawl for processing soundif the PCI latency is set to 28, doesn't have a problem with a PCI Latency of either 64 or 96. Found this out on my system.
    I can play games now, with minimal suttering. Ultimately, I came to the realization that the Audigy LS is for lack of better terminology a budget/low end soundcard and that it's time to upgrade, as it doesn't do hardware processing of EAX. Decided to update to an Audigy 2 within the next few weeks. I might get the Audigy 2 Value card if it is any good, as I already have firewire on my motherboard.
    Here's my system specs, if it will help Creative Labs in trying to find a solution, though I do think a new set of drivers for the Audigy LS would help dramatically.
    Intel 865PERLK motherboard
    GB of PC3200 memory
    3.06GHZ 533FSB Pentium 4
    ATI Radeon X800 Pro
    Highpoint Rocket 00 Ultra IDE card with 3 Western Digital harddri'ves attached.
    Netgear FA3 network card for net connection
    SB Audigy LS
    LG 52X CDROM, LG 52X32X52X CDROM, LG 6X DVDROM

    Almost forgot, the games that give me the most trouble for stuttering are C&C Generals and Lord Of The Rings: The Battle For Middle Earth.
    I'm going to dig through each game's ini file, and search on the internet to see if there is anything that could help me. It's also a possibility that the stuttering could be a bug in ATI's Catalyst 5. drivers.
