Hi, like in the title, I need a software which check my html page for compatibility with 800x600 resolution.

* Yes, i know that building sites with tables up to 740 px only will be enough but want to be 100% sure :)

I do it by opening "favorites" tab (you gotta set it first to proper width) and check if horizontal scroll bar appears, Front Page also has option to display site as you got different resolution

I took a marker & wrote on my monitor where 640, 800 & 1024 are :D

The I just drag the window to the width & see if it fits.

Great idea, GG!

I build my sites with Homesite and it has browser window that I can put to 800x600. I can also choose IE or Netscape. It seems to work as almost all my sites get accepted. BTA I use 750 width tables or smaller.

To use Homesite you must know HTML. It has WYSIWYG too but it's lousy - well, my version 4.5 so maybe it's better now...
