Question the First:

After seeing plenty of discussion, here and on other forums focussing on
website development, I've decided that maybe it's a good idea to
implement max-width (and possibly min-width) settings on my site. The
sense I get from the discussion is that a max-width of 960px is probably
the best choice.

What's a good reasonable value for min-width, given that I have a fixed
120px vertical nav bar down the left side of the page?

Sub-Question: Should max-width (and min-width, if deemed appropriate) be
applied to the HTML tag, the BODY tag, or should I enclose everything in
a DIV and apply it to that?

Question the Second:

Would it be better, instead of setting min-width, to allow the page to
"reformat" itself so that instead of a left nav, it has a horizontal
breadcrumb trail for nav across the top?  If so, can someone point me to
material that will explain how best to do so?
