Angry Fit Damn You!

Why doesn't D+G fit onto my screen without me scrolling left of right?
Is my monitor too small?
Danny, Woomera?

OkeyDokey, you should jump on over to the Computer and Internet Issues Forum, there will be someone there who can help with your question, I'm sure.....and it's actually a really good forum to check in on once in a while

Hope this helps

Not sure if this will work, but its worth a try:

Go to View, Text size then change the size to smaller or smallest.

Hope it helps!

Shouldn't make any difference, modern browsers will wrap automatically to fit the screen.
However, if someone has posted a message containing something that's non-wrappable like a wide graphic or long URL, then the page size will have to be renderedwide enough to accomodate it. IOW no wrapping, and scroll bars appear.
Is it everywhere on D & G (works for me !), or just one particular thread ?

Papertiger has hit the knail on the head! As he said it's caused mainly by photos! This has been discussed before and in more detail, do a search!!

Thats true, no good changing your screen resolution either, soon as someone posts a pick you get that, although I do get scroll bars at the botom.

Gogirl,
i hope you're as sweet in person as you are in text. But seriously.
Thanks to everyone.
the problem seems to have dissappeared this week.
Papertiger, the problem doesn't appear on any particular thread, i've noted its occurence on threads with photos etc but I don't know why it happens on the dunnunda + godzone forum.
Is it just me?
