Hi!
I have created a website and deployed it on the server, when i am calling that website through browser i am getting the page in the way in which i have designed i.e; it is coming properly with actual fit.
But when i am calling that website through other desktop or laptop whose size are less i.e the screen size the page width is getting increased automatically.This should not happened.
I have 15.1 inch screen size so when i am calling it the screen fits perfectly but when i am calling it from other machine whose size is less than my screen the page width is getting increased.
I have created the website in my laptop, i am not getting why this is coming.
If anyone has any suggestion or idea please give me.

Thanx in advance.

Websites can be created with a pixel size, not with a size in inches. A 15" laptop can have a screen size of 1024x768, 1280x1024, 1376x768, 1600x1200, or even 1900x1080. On a smaller screen they might have a smaller resolution than what you have and that means that the page will be bigger to them.

You can design a website to be dynamically sizing so that it take 100% of the browser width and resizes as the browser resized as well. There can be problems with this, but many sites do it.
