Fixing page width (and preventing resizing) with Mystique theme

    Hi. I have been creating my website on my home computer and the dimensions were exactly what I wanted. But when I checked the website on another computer, its dimensions were different. More specifically, the navigation bar turned into two lines (since all of the tabs wouldn’t fit on one line). Similarly, images were cut off on the sides. Basically, the website width changes based on the size of the internet browser window.

    Is there a way that I can keep the width consistent, so that it doesn’t change (for example, so my navigation bar stays set up the way I want it)? I appreciate the help. Let me know if you need any clarifications!

  • When designing a site you should keep in mind that not everyone keeps their browser at the full width of their monitor, and not all monitors are the same size. This is why the 960 width is so popular. You can see what your site will look like with different size browser windows at browsershots.org – Screen Size on the blue bar near the bottom of the page.

    set a min-width/ or width property on the .page-content selector, like 980px (keep the fluid option selected)
