Hello,

I am new to web site design, In have used CoffeCup and my site works ok, but I am having real trouble trying to understand how I can make it 'fit to a window'
It seems that the subject of websites auto sizing is not so easy....

"Liquid Layouts" would seem to be a good idea, can anyone say how I start to implement something like this in my site.

If I go from full screen to a window, the site just gets the sides and bottom chopped off, not shrinking automatically to fit the window.

Any help would be much appreciated

Thanks
Peter

This is a question that has to do with CSS. If you have CC HTML editor you can go into File > New from layout.

From here select which layout you want and begin creating. This will get you started.

Peter, just to clarify, liquid or fluid pages don't shrink and expand so much as they collapse into a narrower space. For instance, if you have a page with two columns, the right column might drop below the left column when viewed in a narrow window.

Elastic pages are designed so the different content areas of the page stretch and shrink as necessary to fit within and fill variable window sizes.

As Eric suggested, CC's HTML Editor comes with several layouts which make use of fixed, liquid or percentage (elastic), plus layouts that combine these methods.
