DO NOT USE TABLES! They are hard to update and produce messy and bloated code. Plus, they are the outdated method of laying out your Web page. Tables should ONLY be used for tabular data.
Make a "fluid" design using CSS. One way to do this by putting all of your "content" in
and then creating this style rule:
#allcontent {width: 90%)
By setting the width to 90%, your page content will always fill 90% of the screen no matter if the viewport (what is visible in the browser) is 800px or 1280px, or some other high (or even lower!) resolution.
Here are some great CSS sites if you are unfamiliar with it:

That's a complicated question. What most people do is develop for a specific resolution but keeping in mind that there are others. A good example of this is Yahoo itself. All of their content is on the center of the page and the larger your resolution the more white space you get.

you definately want to use CSS design.
http://www.csszengarden.com is a website that has over 900 different look and feels to the stie. On all of these sites no HTML was changed - only the CSS.
You'll want to look at the site to see the power of CSS.
Most particularly http://www.csszengarden.com/?cssfile=063/063.css has an example of expanding a graphic to fit across the screen using em units.

Try using percentages for your widths, and CSS for your layout design.
