  6. WEB PAGE DESIGN • When creating a web page using a layout with a table or layers, choose a page width that can be seen entirely on the smallest possible screen resolution. • You don’t want users to have to scroll from left-to-right in order to view content on your web page because of the fact that you made your page too wide. • You also don’t want users to have to manually change their monitor’s resolution settings just so that they can view your web page efficiently.
