Monitor Resolution Control

It is okay you can laugh, call me a noob, and an idiot--I'll still love you guys, but
is there a way to have an endusers monitor automatically change to a designated
resoulution when they load a webpage?  If so could someone tell me how to do this?
For example Jane types in www.whospageitanywho.org.  
Her computer is set at default 640 x 480.
But the site she just entered is best viewed at 800 x 600.
Is there a way to auto set her monitor to 800 x 600 through some sort of script
without her having to adjust her monitor on her own?

In advance thank you for all you lovely suggestions, comments and name calling.  
All are greatly appreciated.  :p

All thank you bunch’s for your posts.

My intentions are neither vindictive nor malicious--the reason is because I am building a learning program for a global company.  Some of the end users will view the content at a kiosk where because of admin reasoning they can not change their monitor settings from the default 800 x 600.

However, most would say build the content at 800 x 600.  I say why cater to those few (even though the number is grossly large) when the populous of end users within the company CAN change their settings...even though some are too lazy and despite the few users who do not know how to change the settings.  So in hopes that maybe since games can alter monitor settings (yes I know it is local running app) that by chance one would know how to do the same for the internet.  Please understand I have to find ways to satisfy the gluttons I do work for - for a micron of the cheese - so I have to play by their constraints and try to do the best I can.

For danataylor--I hope I did not offend you--I read your tone as such. ;)
Me! Offended! I was absolutely devastated! ;)

Good luck - Hope you find an answer...
