This can't be done with pure html, it would need something that works dynamically on the clients (browser) side, like JavaScript or VBScript.

Or a surefire way is to have them pick, which I'm sure is not what you want.

The nice thing is, most people own monitors that can do 1024x768.

Be relative. Express everything in terms of percentage, "em", etc. This works as long as you're willing to accept that the client controls the look and feel of the page.

The minute you want everything to look a very particular way, you loose. Such sites will look best on the client that designed them and everyone else who is close to that client's specs. I have a portable device that surfs fine, but only supports 800x600. You find out real quick who your friends are.

In CSS define a wrapper for your entire web page. For instance if you want to fill 90 percent of the width with a 20px margin top and bottom:

CODE
#wrapper {
    padding: 0;
    margin: 20px auto 20px auto;
    width 90%;
}


Or a webpage with a 5 percent border.

CODE
#wrapper {
    padding: 0;
    margin: 5%;
    width: auto;
}

Either way give you a fluid page that looks similar in different screen resolutions.

actually I have tried that 100% concept several times..
but it wouldn't worked.
I have done it using DIV. and all DIV's has background images itself.
