Exactly!
Audiomad, trust me, you don't want to do that.

Make your site layout fluid and design it for 1024x768.
Let the layout scale up to any screen width your user may have.

Anyway, there is no reliable method to do that, so don't bother.

omg!
and what if the "user" has an older monitor that only supports 1024x768? some of the older monitors would be quite happy to go pop it you tried to forced them to exceed there limits.

Never touch user of your site, think of him as your client.
I have not seen your website but for the type of the site such as FORUM
it easy enough to make site support any resolution.
Think about people who uses IPhone, it grows big, and modern sites must support
everything now.
