How to make scroll bar drop with a down menu?

How to make your website size look the same to all users.?

  • I'm building a website atm and it never really crossed me that the size would look different on other computers until I went on my other PC and the size was really bad and made it look horrible. I have a drop down menu at the far right to login and on my PC I built the website on it looks nice, but on the other it drops more to the right and you have to scroll across to type on it (Which on the PC I built it on there's no horizontal scroll bars.) Is there anyway to make the size fit all PC's? Sorry if this question doesn't make much sense, I'm confused myself haha!

  • Answer:

    You have to write all dimensions as percentages and not as exact pixel lengths.

Would not recommend if you are not entirely confident with websites, but you can use this method http://css-tricks.com/resolution-specific-stylesheets/ or use %s as the other guy said.

There are two "techniques" to design a website: fixed width (usually centered, and what you have right here), and "liquid layout". A liquid layout adjust its width to the width of the WINDOW displayed on your screen. As you reduce the width, the site adapts and shrinks/expands texts as well as images. It is NOT avery easy task, and requires you to check with all major browsers for compatibility, since your "CSS" and styles commands have to differ with some browsers. Check http://web2coders.com: that is a liquid layout. http://web2coders.jrcw3.com/modules/liquid/ is an old piece of code I wrote a few years ago. It is also a liquid layout, but is downloadable as well. If you want the source code with all the files, proceed with the page until you see "download the source (Zip)" and click on it! You can then download it and learn HOW it is done, by example.
