    scroll bars in posts

    Hi there...

    When using a certain laptop to view the forum, I get a horizontal and vertical scroll bar within every individual post, makes it very tedious to read the posts (for example a one-line post has no text visible until you use the scroll bar).

    Is there a setting on foot.ie that I can use to get rid of these scroll bars?

    Has the laptop a very low resolution? Can you take a screenshot?

    Just back on that laptop now... The resolution is at 2nd lowest of 4 available settings, 1024 x 600. I tried the highest setting but it still has the scroll bars.

    screenshot attached here...

    I like high energy football. A little bit rock and roll. Many finishes instead of waiting for the perfect one.

    Thanks lads. I'll be upgrading the site in the next week or so, that should fix it.

    Hey Adam,

    i just wanted to point out that the problem is persisting and, if anything, has actually gotten worse since the upgrade!

    Cheers!

    Yeah, someone else pointed it out in the other thread. If it isn't fixed when I have the template fixed, I'll come back to it.
