Text wrapping on Opera Mobile

adriandilly

Hi I'm using my Samsung Galaxy S 2 with Opera Mobile and I regularly view the news page https://www.edp24.co.uk

Visiting the site you'll notice the news ticker at the top of the page which often extends on to two or even three lines.

Whenever this happens, the whole page will bounce up and down franticly making it difficult to read.

I can stop the problem by turning off Text Wrapping in settings, but then I have to move left to right on the page to read text! I have tried Android stock browser, but that never wraps text whether AutoFit is on OR off.

I prefer using Opera anyway. I know it's a specialised problem but could anyone help? thanks!

is it fine on 1 line but a problem on multiple?
just booted it up in Opera mobile and it seems fine,but i only see 1 line

Hi, you need text wrapping on and zoom in closer. thanks

custardy

ah yeah,I see it
though I had to zoom beyond what I would usually zoom
single column gets rid of the ticker
depends if that suits you

You must have good eyesight! But yeah it depends on which article and on how closely I view the page, particularly if I want to zoom in on a picture. Single column isn't perfect and isn't my favourite!

you might have a fancy AMOLED screen,I have a higher resolution

adriandilly

yeah yeah
I think my HTC desire was better resolution wise, but even then I'd wanna zoom in to read more comfortably
