Hi. I'm not sure if this is a problem with the site or my own settings (though it doesn't happen with any other forums I use).

It's regarding the 'Forum Jump' drop down box on the right of the screen: When I access the drop down menu to get a list of forums - by clicking on the small black down arrow - the list box half goes off the screen to the right, so I can't access the arrow to scroll down to the forums in the bottom half of the list.

Has anyone else had this problem? Is there a way i can fix it?

    Having never used the Forum Jump function I had to try it to see what you meant.
    The same happens to me as it does to you, the box is over to the right so I can't use the scroll bars. I was able to scroll the list though by using my mouse wheel. If you have a mouse wheel just hover mouse pointer over the list and scroll the wheel.

    I get the same with Firefox. :(

    However, if I hover my mouse cursor over the list then I can scroll up and down through it using the mouse wheel. The up/down arrow keys also scroll through the list.

    EDIT: **** snap **** :)

    Thanks for that, so at least I know it's not my browser settings.

    I don't have a mouse wheel as I'm on a laptop. Though I've managed to scroll down using the keyboard arrow keys (though I swear I tried that once before and it didn't work........., strange). So hopefully I don't have to keep shortening by browser window.

    Oh well.......

    There is a second forum jump box at the bottom of the page that does have a working scrollbar.

    Hi PCP,

    We have reduced the indent size allowing you to see more of the text in each option. :)
