Default Testing under 800 x 600


My gfx card is not letting me go to a 800 x 600 resolution. Anyone knows of
tools/websites for testing webpages under different resolutions and web
browsers 9without loading anything on the computer)?

There are three buttons in the upper right hand corner of your standard
Windows window. I suggest getting familiar with the middle one.

In Opera, I can set the title bar to display the pixel resolution of the
viewport. Helpful for resizing to a specific size.

Resolution is irrelevant. Just resize your browser window.

A lot of page-zone google alerts got my attention.
To display the site in 800x600 just count 800 pixels wide and 600 high on
your screen. Make a little pencil mark and resize the browser window to
that.One quick way to count them just set the screen resolution to 800x600,
stretch the browser to fit the window then set the resolution back to
whatever it was. The browser window will get smaller but still be 800x600.
Make your pencil marks and your done.

It doesn't work properly. You need to get the horizontal bars when you go
smaller and you need the exact 800 x 600 experience.

The horizontal scroll is what the 800x600 people are also seeing. But I ran
accross this lame tool last week.
