Screen resolution vs. Browser window size

Thanks for sharing this! I have always been concerned with designing sites at certain sizes, where screen resolutions change, or more importantly from the article, browser size. Even with people preferring to use browsers at 75% width, as screens increase resolution the widths of websites still might be an issue.

I have been a newbie with some of the units used today, but I design websites using the relative em unit. I wonder if we will be safe designing websites with the em unit and making the page widths 75% of the full em width of a page? Anyone know what the full em width of a page is or is it variable?

This link is an article from W3C explaining the positives of using em units and again, I think you'll enjoy it. The em unit is a must for someone that wants to design a website that is flawlessly scaled for mobile browsing. It also touches upon text browsers and braille browsers :)
