The web page operator needs to set it to a more universal resolution. I can see it on one computer, but an a different one that I also use, the web page is way too wide to read. I now have to keep moving sideways to read end of sentences. I did not have to do that before for the other cumputer. Its going to cause a lot of frustration until its adjusted. Even now, I need to scroll horizontally to double check what I have written. I just did a Google search - web page too wide for screen - and came up with the reason.

There is a remedy for this. Close all programs.
1.) Right click on your desktop screen.
2.) Click on "Properties."
3.) Then, click on.. "Settings."
4.) Set Screen resoluton to be " 1024 x 768 pixels"
5.) Click "Apply." Then. OK.
You should get a black out and a pause.
Now everything will look smaller on screen.
In your browser on top you can adjust font size by clicking "View." Then.. "Text size."
Most today have their computers set at that resolution. It may take a little getting used to
as far as everything appearing smaller. But, there will more seen on your screen.
Grace and peace...

Please note, this is still a problem for some users.
Could CF insert tables, percentages, or text wraps, instead of expecting the users to change their monitor settings? I regularly use the setting recommended above, but still have to scroll back and forth to read every line of every post. Most people have their monitors set for what they need to see for work in other programs -- not just what they need to see in their browers.
This was brought up at the changeover, and support staff reassured us that it would be fixed. It impacts every post, every thread. Apparently it is fine for some users, but please take note that there are still some of us who would like a text wrap.
It might be possible to resolve it by putting a break halfway through the navigation bar, as that appears to be the only page item that requires the width. The table widths could use percentages instead of fixed pixel widths -- some are set at 1000 pixels wide. Even bringing them down to 800 would help.
