I dunno. Did you? How about a page that has no tables?

OOPS! Terminology error - I meant table width.........didn't I ? :)

Okay.......for a page with tables.......I meant table
width..........(phew).....and for a page without tables.....

1. The header banner of a page.
2. Cell width and padding. (Cells created in layout mode )
3. Image size and spacing.
4. Frame properties (if you use them).
5. Other object sizes, (flash buttons etc).
6. .....er.......

- and a this point, (as I'm still a new boy myself at all of this), I'll
return the question back Murray. Please grade my answers fairly :)

Ah ha - I knew there was a basic :

<style type="text/css">
body{width:750px}
</style>

In amongst all that clever CSS look-and-do CSS tutorials I's done :).

One of the pitfalls of learning a subject this way, (in the early stages
before you get more experience in using the software), is that when a basic
question like this one comes up, (about page width), is that I have to go back
through all the clever coding I created whilst building some CSS page in a
tutorial to see just "How did I set the page width there?"

Just a note of caution. I posted that CSS mostly to harass Murray. ;-)
I have no idea how well supported it is across various browsers and
operating systems. Test thoroughly before using on a production site.
