Officially, the minimum resolution for my Visual Thinking and Diagramming software[^] is 1024x768.
However and being reallistic, plus considering navigation tree and palettes, only at 1280x1024 you start to feel comfortable (by the way, my monitor is at 1920x1200).
For me it is a commercial problem to increase that minimum requirement, because reduces my market of possible future users.
Wake up! The Singularity is coming.

I don't like elastic layouts, instead I give extra stuff to users that have wider resolutions.
Currently I am working on a pretty much controlled environment so we could set a 1280 minimum but for the not so controlled environments I like the 1024+benefits implementation.

The website I'm working on must respect most if not all accessibility features so blind people can use it with special devices.

FWIW, in the last release of ToDoList[^] I added a mode that specifically took advantage of the increased screen width of display to display edit fields.

The applications I develop are used in-house at my employer's facility, a warehouse. The production line systems run no less than 1024x768 and no more than 1280x1024 (that one is more rare though). So I have a somewhat decent amount of space to work with, as the applications are not too complex.
I do, however, get caught up at times in the 1920x1080 monitor I use for development. And when I place it onto a production system at 1024x768 I'm like "Hey, where did the UI go?!" Haha.

I develop on mobile devices and althouht the screen sizes are getting larger the largest being 600 by 800, we STILL have to cater for device with a screen res of 320 240.
So count yourself lucky that you don't have to work all the way back to that if you want it to work properly.

Yup! I was just gonna say that.
So, "What is the minimum screen width mylatest application required?"
240px

This is what I use regularly

Just out of curiosity, is that string supposed to be an MD5 hash for ``[object HTMLCollection]''?

While I don't personally develop for mobile devices, I seems like the up tick in mobile apps should be pushing support towards smaller screens.

The screens might be getting smaller but the resolutions aren't necessarily doing the same.
Allegedly the forthcoming Apple iFad3 is rumoured to have a resolution of 2048x1536.

That means it will have really small text, making users wish the resolution is lower, or have huge fonts that take up a relatively large amount of screen.

First we had code bloat (not to be confused with Bloatus Goates). Bloody operating systems requiring more than 1GB! Whatever next?
Now it seems to be spreading to screen resolution.
If it won't run on my 13" CRT then I don't run it.
To paraphrase BG "640x480 should be more than enough for anybody!"

It's caching stuff you use often to serve it faster to you. Windows 7 can run even on 64 MB of RAM.

My last application is for mobile devices, and only for them  ... so it´s 500px and below...

It's the current standard that we use 1024 x 768 as the minimum screen resolution now. 640 x 480 and/or 800 x 600 resolution was that day when we heard and started learning Computers with DOS and then Windows 98. Life has changed, Technology too. I can't imagine a monitor less than 1024 px now. Yes, there are some people who are still using that, but should upgrade to a higher resolution if require.
