Help me with my code???

[princessmirandajo]

First, I know there is a way (I think lol) to set your positioning to be relative to the viewer's screen size, isn't there?  How do I do that?

and/or

please view this page's source code and tell me if my it is all crazy because I've noticed that depending on if my screen is maximized or not, the Randa's Resale logo is not positioned the way it should be, but everything else is fine?  I probably have the code way screwy because I'm brand new at CSS, anyway.

Thanks!


edited to add:  I use HTML Kit as my editor, by the way...

Use percentages when setting sizes, rather than absolutes;i.e., 100% page width will appear as the maximum size on all screens.

There's two ways to do it. You can do the whole page as a fixed width, so no matter how the person resizes the window, the page is stuck the same way.

OR you can do a fluid width format, which allows the page to squish up so the important things are visible.

Here is one CSS tutorial on fixed width:

I'm digging up a few others.

here's a percentages (fluid width) discussion that shows you how:

The best place to go, IMO, for coding info (because you KNOW it's right), is the w3schools. This site is the home of The World Wide Web consortium. They establish ALL web standards, so the info you get from them is absolutely correct.
You can also run your code through their  validator.

Here is a link to their section on CSS.

I am a large fan of w3schools, but I missed their validator.  Thanks!

It could be caused by an extra space after the :
