Staring perhaps an hour ago, the forum posts are not rendering well for me. I think the ad - graphic near the subject is positioned too far to the right causing the page to be wide, which, in turn, causes text to wrap based on the wide page. That is, the text is wrapping off to the right of the visible page.

Hello Pedro,

Do you have a large monitor? On the 20" monitor here, the topic from your link fits on the page. . .

I have had problems when people post screen shots and sometimes links cause the wrap.

Its because of the URL in the post which has no description. Solved.

Hi,

I've noticed it two ways (per my prception) -

First, as Dick mentioned
Quote: when people post screen shots and sometimes links cause the wrap.

Second, when there are "embedded spaces" between words posted by somone, as if something is pasted here after copying from some where(where "it" was following different indentation rules & the post here was previewed before posting)

Hi Mac,

I kept the thread open for some time on the screen, sorry if the problem is already solved.

Not sure what was changed, but it wraps better now. Thanks.

Quote: an 'ass-kicker' video card
It was not a hardware problem, but a page format / browser problem. The card will only display what it is told to display.

Hi,

This problem is againg happening at my end (for the front page only BTW)- first thought was that it's something to do with my local settings but then I logged on different PCS & then with Mozilaa but the front page is always wide.. :(

It seems to be a problem in a post in the Portal Page and let me know if it will happen again.
