The below finds the resolution but the page looks different depending on
the resolution. Please advise how I can make a web page look the same no
matter what the resolution?

In my above example the page width scrolling changes depending on
resolution. I want it to be the same if either resolution is used.
Your users will not be happy with such a design.
To start with, there are a lot more resolutions than just 1024x768 and
800x600. A lot of laptops have wider screens and some of your low-end
laptops and hand-held devices have odd screen sizes as well.
Then add the fact that not everyone runs their webbrowser in full
screen. I almost always have a 10-25 pixel margin on the side of my
screen so I can monitor the current apps that are running and see when
the status changes. (Long compiles and the like.)
Then look at the browsers that offer a side bar. That takes screen space.
Add changes in font sizes and all calculations get even more complex.
Design your document to look good in any browser with any view port size
(which is the numbers you are really asking for anyways).
