How do i get web sites pages to display the entire page on my screen w/o having to scroll right to read the info? I use firefox but it did it on explorer and aol browsers too. I don't have a wide screen monitor.
zoom out or change your monitor to a decent resolution. Most web pages are going to display just fine on a screen resolution of 1024 if the browser is maximized, maybe 1280. For example I think the relevant part of the forums is ~1100 pixels wide, and the actual text area less than that. What size monitor do you have?
The control + wheel trick works great. I had tried resolution adjust and changing the size of text display. I cant believe i never knew about this as this problem has been bothering me 4ever. Thank u so much 4 the help. When viewing this page 4 example, i would have to scroll right to see if i had any replies to my posts.
dell dimension 2300 w/ 16" monitor and windows xp. The resolution was set at 600 x 800. It goes up in increments and the next one is 1024 x 768. some where in between would be ideal but it wont set there. I think i will leave it at 1024 and zoom in as needed instead of having to zoom out every time. This does seem to be more convenient. I do like the larger type in 800 x 600 though.I wish to thank everyone for their kind assistance.
The type size is adjustable in Display Properties. I haven't seen an 800 x600 resolution in many years.
You're really short-changing yourself by keeping the resolution so low.
