Re: design resolution question

Only problem with the "screen.Width == 1024" script below is that your only
checking if the resolution "is equal to" 1024 or "is equal to" 800 pizels
wide. I'd add some greater than or less than arguments in there just in
case. There are some funky resolutions out there like mine, which is running
at 2048x768 on a dual 19" monitor setup.....
