Question for Web Techs ( Web Design)

After building a Web Page (or a whole site) is there a little program to show you how the page would display in various size monitors. I build mine on a 21" but would like to see how it displays in other sizes. Thanks in Advance!

1. Depends on the resolution of the monitor

Kinda hard to tell.

If your page is 750 pixels wide and 450 pixels tall (at 72 pixels/inch)--that's a good starting place for a web page. If it's scalable in size, that's even better.

2. You're looking for a nifty little utility...

...called "BrowserSizer". Just plug that into Google, and take your pick of your favorite freeware site for download.

Enjoy.

3. MultiRes is also useful here

BrowserSizer will only show you how your page looks at your current resolution or lower. Since I have my display set at 800x600, BrowserSizer can't show me how things will look at 1024x768 or even 1280x1024. But MultiRes lets you change the resolution of your display quickly and easily.
