Variable Fixed Width

So for the width of the body we’ve had it

[CODE]height:100%;
/* font: 77%/1.4 ‘Lucida Sans Unicode’, ‘Lucida Grande’, verdana, sans-serif; */
font: 77%/1.4 Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
min-width:1030px;[/CODE]

I’d like the min-width to be variable between 800px and 1030px. Any ideas on how best to approach this?

-Regards

Why do you set the font size smaller than your viewers' preference?

For most people that will be illegible.

Don't you want them to read your page?

How do you expect the browser to determine what it should be if you

(could) give it a range?

And why bother? Why not let it adjust to the viewers' window size?

But can you answer my questions?
