Dysan Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 Hi, How does http://www.msn.com/ resize their website upon the browsers text size being resized? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haku Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 Almost all sizes are set in ems (a unit of size that is dependent on text size, and as such changes according to the size of the text). Pixels will only be used for some margins and padding. But widths will be dynamic. Some sites may use percentages as well, although they dont work as well.

Dysan Posted March 4, 2008 Author Share Posted March 4, 2008 How would I create the page as shown in the following image, so that it resizes upon like msn.com does upon the browsers text being resized? http://www.freewebs.com/ticstacs/image.bmp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haku Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 Examine some of the code on this site: http://www.contentwithstyle.co.uk/index.php?id=17&s=Articles And some others with flexible width layouts. Sorry, but what you ask is more than a simple question, its a matter of coding an entire page. Thats more than I'm willing to do on a forum. Find some sites like MSN and tear them apart. If you havent got firebug installed, then install it, thats the best tool you can get for examining someones code, and you can play with their code live as well and see how it works. Good luck!
