I am using a 17" monitor with a resolution of 1024 X 768 and I have to scroll down and right to view the entire page. I can not get all the content into view at once.

You can not take control a persons browser.

You can resize the page to fit a 15" monitor at 800 X 600 resolution and center the page to accomodate all screens or use javascript to direct users to the appropriate page depending on their screen. I would do the former.

As far as centering goes, there are some things you can change.

Around line 252 you have this:

<div id="Table_01"style="position: relative; width:100%; left: 15%;">


Change that to just this:

<div id="Table_01">


Then change its styling to this:

#Table_01 {
position:relative; /* so absolutely positioned child elements will move with it as it centers within wider and narrower windows */
width:1000px;
height:725px;
margin:0 auto; /* left and right auto margins center the element if it has a width */
}


For this to work in IE you also need a complete and valid doctype (such as the one below) before your opening html tag, as the very first line in your code. No blank lines above it.

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">

No, it won't work without starting from scratch. Everything on your page uses absolute positioning which makes a resizable design impossible.

You want to

In the day of pop-up blockers what is the best method to redo their browser and NOT trigger pop-up blockers.


You can't control browser settings as I have stated.

You can create a new window via javascript or what appears to be a popup via css and control the title bar and status bar but you can not "redo browser settings".
