Hey, I have this customer that wants his page accessible for widescreen use.. :( oh boy, anyways, I am a bit newer at this, normally I just take a template redo the images and I am set. This guy wanted a custom template, so he's going to get it!!

Anyways, trying to position images using "id" selector, and I am a bit troubled with which one to use; fixed, static, etc, etc, and what about padding, I know I can use the pixels and percents, is there something similar within padding?

If there is anyone here pretty good with CSS and has a few good hints on this matter, it would be much appreciated..

You can make divs, margins and padding in % widths but borders cannot be %, so if you have side borders you may have to make the total widths add up to 98% or 99% to allow for the px borders.

You can also size images in %, if you only give a % width and don't size the height, the height will resize in proportion, but that may create height you don't want and disrupt the layout.
