Screen resolution problem

    Hi, my problem is about screens, on my own screen, anything on my page appears where it should be, but when I check my site on someone's computer, my pictures, tables, etc, are not at the right place if the person has a bigger screen.
    So my question is: Is there a code that auto-align everything at the right place, whatever the screen's resolution?
    Im sure there's a way, since professionnal sites look the same whatever the computer or browser you look at them.
    Thanks

    You really need to be doing this from the beginning.

    I mean everyone uses different resolutions, the minimum (usually) being 800x600 and the maximum can be a lot, i'm not even sure what it is.

    Whats the site?

    As twisted asked, more info would be helpful.
    Sounds like you will need to look into setting your site to some type of fixed width or take better control of the fluid setting you might currently have. Won't know for sure until we can see the site or code....

    it sounds like you've built a fluid width layout and you want a fixed width, I could be wrong but without seeing the page it's hard to tell (I have a widescreen)
