i need to know a script where visitors will automaticly have there WEB PAGE resolution size optamised to <br />
1024 by 768 pixels.<!--content-->If the user only has an 800 x 600 screen then they are not going to be happy to have loads of scroll bars when viewing your page.<br />
<br />
It is usually best to use liquid layout instead, so that your site fills the screen on all resolutions. There is a good article at <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://evolt.org/">http://evolt.org/</a><!-- m --> about this, and many other tutorials elsewhere.<br />
<br />
If you really want a fixed 1024 x 768 layout, then there isn't a script to do this, you just design the size of all the elements on the page to add up to 1024 x 768.<!--content-->Ah yes, but there is another article at evolt that warns of the dangers of liquid layouts:<br />

Amazon had the same problem with their website a while back. In my opinion, stick with 800x600. You can never go wrong.<!--content-->IMHO, even s****ier than a purely liquid layout is using server-side script to sniff the rez and serve up a steamin' hot pile of custom CSS.<br />

You could have a center-aligned <div> and 750 pixels width table inside it. It fits to the screen when using 800x600 and makes a little empty space on the both sides when using 1024x768. Don't make the table widther than 750 pixels, remember that there's the scrollbar at left which decreases some pixels from the width.<!--content-->
