    Post Web page standard size

    What is the new standard webpage size?
    I am confusing between the two standards 1024 x 768 and 800x600.
    Also give me the reason..

    See this thread:-

    The general consensus is that you should still design for 800*600, but with % widths if possible so that it will fit larger resolution windows as well.

    Or use a max/min width code so that the page expands.contracts between limits:-

    Reason: a lot of people still use 800*600 and a modern situation is where people with 1600px wide windows have two 800px windows side by side.

    Code downloaded to my PC will be deleted in due course.
    WIN7; IE9, Firefox, Opera, Chrome and Safari for Windows; screen resolution usually 1366*768.
    Also IE6 on W98 with 800*600 and IE8 on Vista 1440*900.
