  1. Been a while.

    I have a website up and running. On the pc I designed it on it looks fine. When I pull it up on another computer the page is huge and scroll bars have to be used to see it. What am I missing here?

    There are two things that could cause that; most commonly using a fixed pixel-value width size for the pages or page template rather than a percentage, and less commonly, a large image that is unnecessarily high in resolution.

    The resolution on your development machine could be set very high which would make everything look bigger on a lower resolution monitor. It's always best to define width as a percentage, then you avoid the scroll bars (unless it's an image problem, which is less likely).
     
  3. The page has several images but none really big. The table is set to 100% and not pixels.

    Maybe I need to go back to class.
