Web page width
Dimensions of a web page for 1024 screen resolution.
Max width of the page is 1004 pixels, because IE consumes 20 pixels for scrollbar and borders, other browsers need 17..18 pixels. Margin 10 px on the left leaves 994 px for the page. Adding 10 px margin for symmetry to the right leaves just 984 px in total for the page.
