long link location floats of page

Post by leolam » Mon Aug 29, 2005 4:57 pm

I have noticed with some posts that the link  for example: http://forum.opensourcematters.org/inde ... d34d29cc76 rolls off the page to the right because of its length i assume. (FF with 1024 x 768 setting on 17inch monitor)

Leo

odd... it doesn't do that for me. It actually line-breaks when I look at it.

What resolution are you using? Have you tried it in IE?

At 1280 it looks fine to me..

long URLs do indeed float from my screen too:
FireFox & 1024x768

edit: MSIE v6.0 & 1024x768 breaks off the URL on the next line...

as mentioned in my first post on this topic:: 1024 x 768 and Firefox latest. I tried MSIE and this breaks off the URL on the next line... the images as attached do not show up in IE but that must be a setting. I will attach a pic within the next 5 minutes of the 1280 setting........same story!
