Scrolling sideways

Not sure if this is the right place for this, but I solved the need to scroll sideways.

I have two monitors and just replaced one with a 25" widescreen monitor and now the MSNTV*COMMUNITY 2 page is completely viewable without scrolling sideways and I even have space around it.

As you can see in the image the new widescreen monitor is a much wider configuration than the original mac monitor on the right.

In the picture below I have the same page in both monitors and would have to scroll sideways to see the entire page on the mac, but the wide screen monitor on the left shows the whole page with space to spare.

I can only assume the coding for this page must be intended for the newer wide screens.

Then that must be as they say the SHAPE of things 2 come and maybe the option used now is the best there is .

No,. I don't think so, and I'll tell you why, I have a 15.4 inch laptop screen and I don't have to scroll with either sheen- TV2 or the HP Vista !

TV2 screen is 19" on an old Panasonic.

Thanks GF

On the lappy does it say what the display is 980 x 420 or some such thing
( I spaced after thing , I often space in emails even , or space return to put my text where I want it ) thing was last word on my non resised screen , and now when I resized and scrolled it still was , but on line 2 it changed from put to my .

Gfyre my mac screen is set to 1024X768 (stretched)

and my new 25" monitor is set at 1440X900

How does that compare to your laptop setting?

I had a Brother Word processor some years back with like a 12" screen but it had WYSWYG ( what you see is what you get ) display It was nice !

I even designed , layed out and printed the master menu for a friend of mines small Cafe .

Note above that the enter did move it to a new line as I am going to do now
also . I did see it does look diff in post . Now I have came back and did a spcace that jumped it in the text box but I did not use enter .
( space enter , see how it did not start a new line ? )

I'm not so sure, either. It seems to fit proper on both TV & laptops from what I've read here. Also, if it were in the coding,
why does my screen get bigger by simply Logging In?
Before signing in, I have a inch(each side) to spare on a 17" monitor. Sign in, and I have to scroll. Anywhoooo, so Jack,
what made you pop for that big a monitor?
You watch movies or something? How big is that smaller one pictured, looks like lots of wasted space on it. Now you've got
me itching for a bigger one myself.



Probably that Dell 21.5 model. Whatcha buy? An Apple product or something else.

When I was not logged in I still had to scroll sideways, only in this thread. Also I was not able to post until I logged in. That's different than previously.

This is really strange! Now I don't have to scroll unless I go to posting! Even logged in I have the full page showing but as soon as I go to post I need to scroll!

I don't think you can post without signing in!

Now this page is only taking up 2/3rds of the desktop. It's really inconsistent.

I just Logged out, read this Thread and had an inch to spare(each side) on my screen. Damned if'n I know.

I will try to post as Guest.

So guy's do you think the flaw is in the forum coding or something in the posts that doe's it , like the smiles ?

I just notice times right but not day so must be 12 or 24 hours off!

Well I'm signed in and the page isn't filling my screen even when I'm posting this.

Well, when I'm logged in I have to scroll.

Lulu

Is that on your 25inch monitor Jack?

LuLu(guest) , what were you on........TV2 or Mac?

My suggestion would be for Suzy to email the owners of this phpbb site and get them to "look" at it on both
a laptop & desktop monitor. When it was changed so PCs didn't have to scroll, TV2ers had problems.

Yeah that's the 25" monitor.

Tiz,

I was on the Mac. I have no problem on the TV2.

Did they mean Firefox( the browser) or firfox(some kind of phpp)? I don't think it's a matter over nobody cares about TV2,
this format looks good on it. Just wish they'd come up with something like Nutz.

Strange thing about the too wide page is I have only had the problem one time on the widescreen monitor. I have both Safari and FireFox browsers and the page fits fine using either accept for the one time yesterday!
