Hi Ya Lee;

  Don't know what is wrong but it looks like it is at your end. It is fine here and while I was on the phone with "Bigiron" I had him check to and he is OK. Sorry I can't help more.

If you have a mouse with a center wheel or button for scrolling try moving the scroll function while holding the controll key down.

I think this can be done with othe button/mose combinations but am not sure.

I don't have a problem scrolling up,down or side to side. The Open forum page that shows each subject is way to big ,it doesn't fit all of it on the screen all the other forums on this site are normal.

Hey, Lee
What Tom was suggesting (Hold down the Control Key and move the Mouse Wheel) will zoom (enlarge or reduce) the page size.  I didn't know that but it works for me.  Try it.  (I love things like this on the computer!!!)

Lee;

  This is just a WAG. Log off the net entirely, shut down your computer and start it back up again. When it is up reset the internet modum, and log back on to Stunt Hanger. See if it is the same? By doing this you have reset everything and maybe blocked out your problem. It's worth a try it can't hurt anything. Good Luck.

Steve;

  The answer to that one is easy, you can type question marks or whatever all day and it won't hurt anything.It will just take up a lot of room.

In that case this would be the best time to talk my mom into buying me a bigger screen for my computer. ''See mom the internet is growing by the second i suggest we go with the 32 in.screen just to be safe''  **) **) **) n~ n~ n~

Steve: You can try it but I'll bet it don't work. **) **) **)


I think I found it, I downloaded Windows Internet Explorer VII and it changed stuff, like my favorites I used to be able to leave on the sreen on the left side. Now I have to click on a star to get them. Also found the increase or decrease % on the bottum right. Oh well I'll get used to it. Thanks for the suggestions.

Lee;

   Sounds like you are all set, I forgot about the % window, I keep mine on 100% all the time.Sorry you had to find out things the hard way. It gets annoying after a while.


Steve;

  If you get your Mom to spring for a 32" monitor let me know if she wants to adopt a 61 year old son OK.   LL~ LL~

If you up the resolution on the screen the size will go down But the bad thing is you are going to make the better half mad because she can't see the games she plays. If you can stand the screaming an the dishes flying by it might work. I know it makes the pictures look a lot better. I seem to bable a lot this time of night.  May the wind always be at you back at 5 MPH. Leo
