Forum Is ALWAYS messed Up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[kurf]

Yes I would like to report that everytime I come here to view anything, the pages are all distorted; text dont wrap and everything just runs all the way to the right---------------------------------------->
Meaning when someone posts with out hitting enter I have to scroll
ALL the way over every dang page!

Whats up with that too?

Yes If someone posts VB code (maybe C# too) without breaking up long lines it will cause that, since VB code boxes arent scrollable like normal code boxes. That is inconvinient, but not really messed up. Any other problems like that could either be a bad forum skin or your browser, but I dont have the said problem.

If youre having to scroll every time and its not a forum post, as ME suggested, take a screenshot and post it along with your browser info so we can help.

I get this issue occassionally with FireFox 1.5 but clicking refresh normally sorts it out.

Well, if the window scrolls to the right because of a code window, theres not much we can do - nor would we want to, in my opinion. The code window is set to not wrap. If it did wrap, you wouldnt be able to read the code very well.

For the most part people post normal code snippets. Sometimes, more often in the SQL forums, people post a long line of code and that forces a no-wrap.

No probs - I have seen forums that wrap the text, and others still in which the code snippets are contained in panels that have their own scrollbars...

just put the code windows in a div with overflow and a fixed width.

Wow...hey...I didnt mean to cause any trouble...

Yep - its all your fault!!
