    Hi I used the article submission wizard, and when I view the article in Preview, the text is wrapped, and the code has its own scrollbars. However, when I view the final copy, the text doesn't wrap, and as a result you have to scroll across for each line you're reading, which isn't very user friendly, if you know what I mean. http://www.codeproject.com/useritems/netimageupload.asp Can anyone help me with this problem! :((

    manually limit text w/in <pre> tags to some reasonable # of columns... Donno what happened; not too long ago, formatted text in articles had the scrollbars also. And if words were wisdom, I'd be talking even more.

      It's one of the weirdnesses about HTML (at least IE's definition of HTML). Wrapping the text in a table means the overflow:auto style of the PRE sections doesn't work as one would expect. Still thinking about how to best handle this. Maybe fixed width articles? cheers, Chris Maunder

        Chris Could you please move that vertical banner on the left side of the screen and put it as a horizontel banner on the top and/or bottom of the article. People using 800x600 are already cramped without a banner on the left side for the whole article :-( Nish

            Is the printer freindly option always available? I think it gives Nish what he is asking for. Good ideas are not adopted automatically. They must be driven into practice with courageous patients. -Admiral Rickover. ...

                I once knew a guy who decided trying to view his TV upside down was a good idea. He promptly decided it wasn't quite such a good idea when the picture went green...... -- Andrew.

                  Hey that's a cool idea. I wish there is a setting that allows me to automatically go to the printer pages instead of the ones with the banners. I ean, let the banners load in the background, but then I should be re-directed :-) Nish

                      But hey, ya gotta try... When I was 12, there was going to be something real important on TV (well, I thot so anyway) and I was determined to get a picture of it. I'd read that it helped to use BW film and turn up the contrast on the old tube, so I prepared myself accordingly - yes, this was one moment Timbo was going to record for all posterity. When the moment came, I pressed the button - I do remember wondering what effect the flash from my Instamatic 126 would have, but no matter - we'd find out. To this day I think I still have in a box somewhere a picture of my grandparents old BW floor model looking like its not even turned on. People must wonder why I keep it. Sigh... One small step for man...
