I meant "big" in terms of resolution (since that is what matters in this
context, and which is also why I supplied an image of my screen rather
than a reference to its size in inches...). Also, I was talking about
the monitors here at this school computer lab. The big monitors (21")
are set at 1280x1024, the smaller ones (17") are set at 1152x900. No, I
do not have the option to change such things as resolution on this
equipment. Many, _many_ people out there have their monitors set at
640x480. A well written html document should "survive" quite easily on
such displays. This one didn't.
