Gday peoples, My page is not fitting the screen properly. It cuts off a small bit at the side and i need to slide the tab bar at the bottom say 10mm to read a post.
How can i fix this?
Dave.

Here is what you can do. Right click using your mouse anywhere on your screen and a pop up box will appear. Click on "properties" and then go to "Settings" which will take you to your display properties. Your screen resolution is probably set too low which tends to make web pages display too big which means as you have described you have to tab across to view full pages. Standard settings usually are 800x600 pixels which will display large pages. I have mine set at 1600x1024 pixels. These settings vary from computer to computer depending on the type of graphics/video card you are running. Also make sure you have the colour set at its Highest 32 bit quality settings. Once you have done this just click "apply" and "ok' to exit and save. Your icons on screen will be smaller but your web pages will fit. Experiment a little with the settings until you get to the desired one. If you make the settings too small then no great loss, you can easily undo them by simply repeating the same process.Hope this helps Dave.

Got it set at 1024x768. It never used to do it. It also gets a tad small to read at a higher setting. Thanks anyway Poo.

Fella's if you have already done what poodroo said try now dectreasing your text size from within 'view'.
I make bucketloads of typo's trying to type and read such small writing, technoogy used to drive upgrades now it seem it's advertising:(
Shit's me too gotta get a bigger screen!
cheers fnq

Good to see a few others are having the same problem as myself.Only happened within the last week and i thought the kids had been screwing around with the screen settings or some other setting that a computer illiterate idiot like myself would not know about.
Maybe Steve can shed some light on this little prob.
