ratchet Posted August 6, 2005 CID Share Posted August 6, 2005 I mostly browse with FF, however, I occasionally visit sites with IE. Every site viewed with FF "fits" the monitor perfectly, however, if I use IE some sites are much larger (complete with left to right scroll bar!). Yahoo is the perfect example. I've enabled and disabled the settings in Accessibility to no avail. How can I resize these web pages without changing resolution or dpi? Thank You!

netmasta Posted August 7, 2005 CID Share Posted August 7, 2005 You could try changing the text size in IE to a smaller size. I think the setting is in the View menu. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ratchet Posted August 7, 2005 Author CID Share Posted August 7, 2005 Thank you for the reply, however, all that does is change the text size not the page size. Yahoo.com fits (without left/right scroll bar) when I change resolution, however, then it reduces the size of everything on my desktop including FF pages. I can't believe there isn't some sort of "fit to page" function somewhere, especially since everything fits when browsing with FF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
netmasta Posted August 7, 2005 CID Share Posted August 7, 2005 Can you post a screenshot of yahoo.com in IE and one in FF? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

netmasta Posted August 7, 2005 CID Share Posted August 7, 2005 Ok. Screen shots sometimes make it easier to see what's wrong. Especially since there are so many combinations of browsers, screen sizes, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
