Hi,
I found that some of my pages looked "huge" on some computers while they were great on others. How do I get my website to be fixed? I went into properties on my computer and changed some of the pages after changing the size to 800/600 so that I could work like that. The writing was huge so I changed it to a smaller font. I still don't like it but at least I can check to see how the page would look on a computer with a smaller screen.

I work with MS frontpage. I would like to be able to improve the following page: http://www.nelliemuller.com
so that I can see it all at one go. Is that possible?

Another question I have is how do I get two or more menu generators on one page. Only one works for some reason. I guess I have to add a certain code to have more on. Can you help me with that?

Thank you for caring and sharing your expertise.
All the best,
Nellie

Just a quick question, why do you have so many html and body tags in your source code? It's won't validate with repeated html and body tags (plus there's more errors). Run your code through validator.w3.org (you'll need to set up a doctype there to be able to validate your code since you don't have it set up).

Getting to your question. The reason your page looks good on some and huge on others is because its designed for a 800x600 screen resolution. You'll need to design your page using percentages if you want it to fit itself to all screen resolutions. Do a search for "fluid layout" and you should find all you need to know about that.
