Oh, I'm certainly not suggesting that pages don't have to display properly on 800x600 screens. I guess that I'm suggesting, due to the wide range of resolutions that most people are using, that static-sized pages should be depricated and authoring dynamically-sized pages ...
Absolutely. Web pages, should resize up/down to a certain minimum width. Although, resizing a page meant for 800x600 to 3200x2400 would be nuts. The graphics and fonts might to look very ragged.
... the range is so wide now that dynamically-sized pages are certainly the way to go in the future, and the present.
But then, I'm still waiting for the browser that renders vector graphics.
You should be able to do that with a vector graphics plugin for Mozilla/Firefox. Or even a helper app.

Well, anything with a parent <table width=100%> would spread across it. Assuming that the browser window was maximized...

Right, but it's not really a question of what _I_ can see, but rather what everybody else can see.

All block level elements expand to fill width. But the whole resolution problem isn't solved until there's 90% support for SVG.
