    <p>I'm working on a project that would really benefit from filling the whole screen -- it's essentially one 7000px-long page with a giant background filling the whole length (probably chopped into separate pieces and loaded in an intelligent sequential fashion in the final version), with 5 or 6 different segments/areas/slides (basically, "content areas") as you scroll down.</p> <p>At the top is a navigation bar that fills the entire horizontal width of the design. Below it, on the background, are a bunch of different elements, placed at specific positions on the background. The placement on the background is critical as each element is specific to a certain section of the page.</p> <p>It seems to me doing something like <a href="http://windyroad.org/2007/05/18/resolution-independent-web-design/" rel="nofollow">http://windyroad.org/2007/05/18/resolution-independent-web-design/</a> would be really really useful. Alas, that's from 2007 and seems more like a proof-of-concept than anything. Plus it seems like a bad idea to resize a 1000x7000px image with PHP every time somebody resizes their browser window (Or even worse, five 1000x1000 images!).</p> <p>I've used jQuery scripts that scale a background image to fill the entire browser, but never ran across anything that scales every element on page.</p> <p><strong>Is there any way to dynamically scale an entire website to fit the browser window?</strong></p> <p>I'm pretty sure I already know the answer, but figured I'd toss it out there just in case somebody has an idea.</p> <p>Many thanks!</p>
