I'm just trying to figure out if everyone else has to scroll left and right on their "My Forum" page. I found it a little annoying but delt with it @ 1024x768, then i got a widescreen laptop and i STILL have to scroll.... any one know how to fix this? I just want it to wrap text and it seems like it does but it still scrolls. *shrug*

yeah, its nothing significant, not like i cant read it all, just the fact that it scrolls. Guess thats kinda anal, but figured i'd ask

Happens to me if I make a post in SFF or software forums, the long category name throws off the layout.

Strange. Might look into another browser.

Just tested at 1280x1024, and no horizontal scrolling in Opera.

@ 1024x768 in IE i didnt have to.

I think we can chalk it up to a tables definition that firefox doesnt like and most other browsers will handle them ok.

Eh, its not really a big deal.

I love firefox, there is no way I am switching away from it.

I know at school Netscape 6.x renders the page wrong and I would have to scroll to the right to see any post in a thread. It's kinda annoying trying to read replies which are in a column about 3 inches wide. :confused: I haven't had that problem with FF though. Weird.
