Width of posts...

Postby Ollie on Fri Aug 08, 2003 8:49 am

For some reason some posts are wider than my screen even though there are no long unbroken lines of text and no large images. It's quite irratating having to scroll the window accross to see whats missing.

What's causing it?
How long will it take to be fixed?

:D

It also has something to do with the quote function.

the quote box can also push the out...

but it is really annoying.
