Help please. Comments alignment, thanks Options

[Wickedprophecy]

Alright so last night I completely redid my profile with a div overlay. I put my comments into a scrollbox and everything works perfectly, until you get it into a different resolution. The only thing that gets affected is my comments.

This is my myspace-
http://www.myspace.com/wickedprophecy

and this is the code I have for the comments section-
.comt {
position: Absolute;
left: 245px;
top: 635px;
left-margin: 0px;
z-index: 3;
background-color: ;
overflow: auto;
height: 225px; width: 470px;
border: 0px solid; border-color: 000000;}

My screen resolution is 1280 x 1024

I'm just not sure how to fix this, I've tried just about everything I could think of, but I guess for once I just don't know the answer and can't get it by myself, so help please

Great site by the way.

Okay, so I don't know if this will help, but I was once told to use percents instead of pixels. Again, I can't guarantee that it'll work, but I guess you could try it if you want to. I think that is what I was told when I asked about resolutions before.
But since you have your site all set up the way you like, it might be rather hard to convert, and it could mess things up.

Maybe someone else here has a better suggestion. Otherwise, you could always add a note that says it looks best in (whatever) resolution.

Right you are correct (I would write something in the simple div overlay thread about that, but like anyone would bother listening to me in there anyway)
Anyhow, this will help you, ALWAYS set left to 50% this will make sure that no matter what screen resolution anyone is viewing at or browser, it will always be in the center of your page. Also, add another value in there.. margin-left:NUMBER HEREpx; the margin left number can be either negative or positive. Negative towards the left, positive to move it towards the right. Hope that helps.
