page size

[lucy]

hello,

I have recently uploaded my webpage which was developed using webmatrix/asp.net 1.1/c#. The page consists of several data grids placed in a table with a total of 11 colums. Each datagrid contains schedule data and it is desired that all the grids present as one. This is not the problem. My problem is that when the page loads the presented material is much larger than when developed. the page was developed on a laptop with windows xp. when loging on from the laptop to the server, things look fine. When using another computer with windows xp/internet explorer the page is much larger. no formating data (pixel width was included in the table set up). I don't see what mechanism is creating the difference. my high resolution development environment should not affect the web page or does it? Table width="100%" has no affect.

Thank you ahead of time.

Lucy

Are you refering to the text being larger or the table itself? Can you post the link where we can see?

Thanks for the reply-


Everything is larger. I can obtain a similar effect by reducing my laptop screen resolution from 1920x1280 to around 1280x800. the site is napschedule.com - you may run into a login page which i'll disable shortly.





thank you

Your site does not have any styles or fonts, it will appear as the size it is - always. I think what you are experiencing is how it appears in different monitor resolutions.

I'm not sure exactly what your question is, but if you are looking at reducing the size of your text, I would recommend applying a style sheet to the page.

I think you answered your own question. If you get a similar effect when you change your resolution, that is exactly the same as switching to another computer (which is already set at a different resolution).

When developing for the web you have to learn to accept the fact that different users will view your website on vastly different computers, different browsers, different operating systems, etc.
