Every once in awhile (like right now) when I come to this website it �s set up really w-i-d-e so that instead of being on the left, the login section is halfway off the right side of the screen and I have to scroll back and forth to read each line of text in the forum. What causes that and is there any way I can fix it? (It �s rather irritating, actually.)

Hi!
I was about to ask the same question, same here! The site looks all distorted. It usually occurs when someone posts a big image on the forum - that �s not the case here. Besides the moderators � page also looks distorted.
Have a nice day / evening! |

Good morning
It may simply be "friction" between Internet Explorer and Firefox. You may see different layout of a page when viewed with IE or Firefox.
Since Victor works with Internet Explorer, some temporary distortion may occur when you view the site with Firefox. It may also happen if someone pastes on the forum a text from Word.
You can always refresh the page and hope it goes back to "normal".

Thanks, Zalida--it �s nice to know it �s not just me!
And, Baiba, yes, I do use Firefox. I didn �t realize it might cause a problem with Explorer. As for going back to "normal", I logged off the website and came back just now to find it the same way. Oh well, it �s a minor irritation to put with for such a fabulous website and such a caring and helpful community, isn �t it?

Hi, Sue! :))
It �s not just you I �m afraid. ;) I �m having the same problem this morning...
However, I do use Internet Explorer, so using Firefox cannot be the reason for the distorted page!!
Like Zailda, I �ve had this problem before when someone had posted a huge picture or an extremely long link, but this doesn �t seem to be the case today; so I �m at a loss, too...
I hope everything will be back to normal soon.
Best wishes and have a nice day, everyone - Silke

Hi Sue,
Well I use IE, & the page is completely distorted too... No big pictures, though... It does not come back to �normal � (..!) when I refresh the page..
Have a nice day,
Sylvie
Hi Silke! We posted at the same time... |

Well, it �s really weird because nothing is distorted on my computer!
Now I�m curious too!
Edit: It may be due to the text copied and pasted a few threads below.
