Use javascript and write the link statement to use different cascading
sheets depending upon the resolution. In each css page define the position
of each element.
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript">
<!-- Script finds screen resolution then writes link to style sheet. -->
if (screen.width > 1000)
{
document.write("<link rel='stylesheet'
href='../css_files/1024_style.css' type='text/css'>");
window.resizeTo(1000,730);
window.moveTo(15,10);
}
if (screen.width < 1000)
{
document.write("<link rel='stylesheet'
href='../css_files/800_style.css' type='text/css'>");
window.resizeTo(775,575);
window.moveTo(15,10);
}
// -->
</script>
