Tables @ High Resolutions

Problem with table layout at high resolutions

I built a website from a template, and had to resize a few of the tables to 100% width to correct them from going 100 miles east of the rest of the site. Everything works great, however, those with laptops and high res monitors (w:1200+) notice most of the site is confined to half of the screen, and a few areas of text spills over this boundary. I double checked the table and column widths @ 100% so it will fill the whole screen but no luck. Any help or suggestions appreciated.

Welcome to the forum, Jseal.

If the page doesn't expand to fill the screen, then somewhere there really is a limit built into the mark-up, because the DEFAULT would be to fill the open window.

Does your template have a css file or inline style attributes? Is there a width rule for <body> or some all-containing <div> or <table>

Thanks Tedster. I checked the css file as well as the inline style attributes, and all refer to text and paragraph styles, and no mention of table or body width. I scanned the html for anything indicating a table width other than auto for inner-most tables, and 100% for outer tables, including the outer "all-containing" table. I'm playing with various combinations of table properies just to see what happens, but still no luck as of yet.
