    I can't replicate the problem as you describe it.

    Ian.

    Have you tweaked things today to constrain the size of the post reply box?

    If so, then for me it is now much too small given my display size.

    Very very awkward trying to compose a reply of any length or complexity. :(

    You version of Firefox is out of date then.

    First thing to do is update to the latest version. 3.6.3.

    It's possible that on it's own could fix the problem.

    Even so it's been fixed and I havn't updated :D Thanks MSE Ian :j

    For me it has been broken. :(

    Now have a pathetically small reply box. :angry:

    BTW. Best to keep Firefox up to date anyway.

    I never had the problem you described, and I have Firefox up to date?

    The question is, why is PAP using a resolution of 1024 x 768 on a 21" monitor?

    Perhaps PAP should go here

    :D

    Tactless statement (yes, I do realise you made it in jest). However, some of us have eye problems that specsavers can't resolve (not suggesting postingalwaysposting has :)).

    I've had to switch to the old style board as when I went on a thread earlier this evening, the ads were covering over half of the posts, up until this evening, it had been absolutely fine with the new style.

    The ads covering over doesn't occur when I reduce the zoom level but then the type is too small to see!
    We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.
    Eldests' EDS diagnosis 4.5.10, mine 13.1.11 eekk - now having fun and games as a wheelchair user.

    Can anyone please tell me how I can revert back to the old style forum please...its driving me crazy to have to go to the main forum and use the teeny 'forum jump' to get the 'tiny' user control panel when I want to get to my subscribed threads or do a search, I much perferred it when they were direct tabs across the screen.

    Thanks

    Click on "User CP", on the left select "Edit Options", scroll down towards the bottom of the page to "Miscellaneous Options" where you'll see the option to select "skin" type. Click on "old look" and save.

    So far I am liking it. The speed has improved.

    Although I still think that the "crumb trail" is too high up the screen. I think it would be good to move it down in the next gap.

    To the right of the "Important" box you'll find one that says User Tools that looks, to me, like he is holding a huge mobile, this takes you directly to your subscribed threads and user tools.

    Just noticed while doing multi quote that a tick appears when you use it, thanks for that.
