default web page width - 1024px or 980px?
css, responsive-design
Solution
If it isn't I could see things heading that way.
I'm working on redoing the website for the company I work for and the designer they hired used a 960px width layout. There is also a 960px grid system that seems to be getting quite popular (http://960.gs/).
I've been out of web stuff for a few years but from what I've read catching up on things it seems 960/980 is about right. For mobile ~320px sticks in my mind, by which 960 is divisible. 960 is also evenly divisible by 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6.
Problem
When developing web applications, in the past the choice has been `800px` or `1024px` to fit within the monitor of the user. I've been researching responsive web design and fluid designs, and it seems a lot of them define the `980px` width. With the addition of smart phones and tablets, and factoring in the other possible viewports Is `980px` the new de-facto standard? Thanks.
