you calculate the size of your main form ($form) relative to the size of ones screen, example:

$form.width = $form.screenwidth - 100
$form.height = $form.screenheight - 200

how big in absoute terms would this form be ? what do you have your screen resolution set to ? 1024x768 ?

normally this is a very cool way to build forms, but im porting over your code parser bit-by-bit and need to get an absolute number for now. if you run your code and dump out the value of $form.width and $form.height, what is it ?
