How do I set the pages to be the same size no matter what computer they are
viewed in??? On some computers they are very big and you have to scoll to
view the whole page, in others they are fine? FP 2002
 
Set your page width to a fixed size. One way is to place all your
content in a fixed width table - use 760px wide for 800px wide
browsers. The table can be centred (margins on wider browsers) or
left aligned (area of whitespace on the right in wider browsers.).
 
I just relized what my problem is. I am setting my table width to 720px but
this does not include the navagation bar I have on the left side. It was
pre-made in a FrountPage theam and is not included in the table I created on
the right side.Now I have to figure what width to make the table for 800px
pages.
 
Simple arithmetic - The total width of your page should be less than
760px.
If you are using left shared border, then the main table should be
760 - width_Of_Left_Border - 25 pixels.
Also place the left border content in a right aligned, fixed width
table. This will improve appearance in wider browsers.
If you are not using FP shared borders then main table is 760 -
width_Of_Left_Border
 
I can't get past your splash page at http://www.vineyardchurch.glorybound.net/
- and suspect no one can
Doesn't help that the "Enter" text is formatted with white text on a white background
- and does not point to any other page in your site
(except the default home page which is the same splash page)
