Hello Slava

May I know why the size of any forum page has been enlarged horizontally? Today, I was reading the new mails and I had to use/ move the bar at the bottom of the page left and right to be able to read the mail completely. Didn't enjoy it much! Could you please set the size of the page as before?

Hi Tom

Were there any long links in your mail?
Something like that often creates the same effect in
forum threads... like this link probably will:

Initially, I also thought of it, Amy! Laughing

Look at this one for instance.

How can I make an adjective clause?

Amy, did you notice that? Are you facing the same thing/ problem? I am not enjoying reading the posts which spread horizontally!! See for example,

to didn't versus to wouldn't

Hi Tom

That particular thread looks fine on my monitor. Shocked

I did edit one very long link today (in Tamara's "hope" thread) and that brought that thread back to "normal" width on my monitor.

My laptop has a very small display area, so if I happen to log on using my laptop, I always have the sort of problem you're describing... What size monitor do your have?

Minimize/Maximize Browser Windows Fri Oct 20, 2006 22:42 pm  Minimize/Maximize Browser Windows
 

Dear Tom,

You can minimize (otherwise maximize) your browser's window.

Open Internet explorer and with the mouse drag the edge to maximized (DO not use maximized section), when you get it to the size you want press shift key and holding this key, now with the mouse close the window (the x in the red box).... reopen the window and should be the size you wanted... Do as many windows and they should be open according how you did size.

Most of sites are best viewed when your browser is maximized. If your browser is not maximized, you may not be able to see everything on the page. To maximize (or enlarge) the size of your browser window, select the middle of the three small buttons in the extreme upper right corner (the one with the square on it). To de-maximize it, select the same button again.

You may also have difficulty seeing everything on the page if there are additional toolbars along the edges of the display, or within the browser window. To move these toolbars, select the toolbar with your mouse and drag the toolbar to another location on the page.

Some people have an old or a small monitor and cannot see everying well.

Best wishes for all.
