Setting the size of the entire webpage

hey

i am working on a website for my dad for this thing he's doing in college called IMET.. it's basically for teachers that want to get a masters degree in technology..

anyway, check the page out first

http://www.richie086.com/imet/index.html

now how would i go about making it so the browser would open to just one size (say 900 px wide).. ??? or does anyone have any ideas on how to fill in the white space without making it look dumb?



i tryed making the graphic a little bigger but every time it looks too streched out.. the fonts dont come out right, there all grainy.. but if i cant figure out how to do it, i might have to just deal with grainy fonts..

thanks for reading this i hope u can help!

Set the background color the same as the navigation. I would make the navigation align right so the image isnt cut off.

The other option would be to use tables and basically you would just center the page. Then no matter what resolution the client was using it would be centered.

Assuming I read this correctly, you do not like the text in the bottom frame stretching across the page.

I would put all the content of the bottom frame in a table set at the width you require ie 900 pixels

OR

search a javascript web site for a window resize script which you can place in your code ie

where you change the:
var targetheight=400;
var targetwidth=800;
