Hi,
I've seen several web portal and their dedicated administration side.
some of those administration (portal) are according to w3c standard
(1024 px
large), but most of them use the full screen width.
therefore i would like to know if there is a standard size (width /
height)
for web portal administration side ?
what do you do usually ?
thx.

Completely depends on application design.
My favor last few months is to use some standard width as now we will
se more and more >1024 px user screen resolutions,
and making site full width will make users with higher resolutions to
tilt head left-right like watching tennis :D
Its more user friendly to have user focus on center of screen and
fixed width eg 980px , and with use of Ajax/DHTML, application
doesn't need to use all space available as you can easily pop up less
commonly used features let the user hide what he doesn't need
rearrange elements etc etc
