Of late I have to scroll left to right to read a post whereas before it all fitted nicely in the screen, What am I doing wrong?

I don't think you are doing anything wrong. I believe it just happens when either large pictures are posted on to the thread, or some annoying git types in a word/words with no spaces that is longer than the default width of the page.

Example..............................thisisthesortofthingIam talkingabout...........!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ah! So thats why it happens. Those W-I-D-E screened posts are really starting to piss me off :mad: Maybe Danny could issue a 'directive' on this issue, as I'm sure I a'int the only one it pisses off.

Ed is spot on.

Oversized pics and lines devoid of spaces.

Most common culprit is pasting in a long url. Drives us mad - we have to read the threads...........

Roll on an agreed vector based web standard.

have to buy a Didgital computer to get a wider screen.
