I'm not understanding why you would want to "resize" everything via JS.
Wouldn't it be a helluvalot easier to use CSS with a percentage value
for height/width?
There are a more than a few articles on this on the web. A quick google
search will show you what you need. Try something like "css fluid layout"
There is a time and place to use code/js, but just scaling things to fit
the screen is not one of them. (IMO - with a couple potential
exceptions.... :) )
my thoughts.

One way would be to restrict your display to 800x600, ie on bigger
screens the entire thing just centers itself.
Another way is what u want to do,resize the entire thing. Thats what
im doing with my webpage at http://sid-deswa.110mb.com
I use JS to calculate the appropriate length and width, and jquery
shapes the divs

ok I am currently working on a website and I need to have my website
to adjust to the clients display settings so like for an example
that if the user has a higher display settings my webpage through
javascript would resize all the elements on my webpage to keep the

Javascript is not the answer - use HTML and CSS.
so I am gussing somthing along the lines of first grabbing the
clients display settings and then use that to then scale every element
on the html page with the power of 2 or somthing.
Don't do that. Consider someone with a desktop across 2 x 61cm
displays set to 1920 x 1200px, do you think they'll be happy if you
spread your web page over their entire display?
