Sir AUSTIN . . . . . (E r r r r r r r) . . . . . RAYMOND: Thats a hard question to evaluate without fully knowing your computer and its programs installed and the Browser being utilized, along with any composing/typing nuances of yourself. In your inial text of the posting above, it possibly looks as if you might be typing directly into the "REPLY TO POSTING" dialogue box.. In that simplified procedure, you would need to be continually mentally aware of your textual composing in order to insert a proper ENTER/(Carriage return) at sentence ends or double ENTERS to get a separate line spacing for initiating a new paragraph. A more desirable procedure is to use either WORD PAD or its more simplistic NOTE PAD, in your computers word processing capabilities, to compose your postings text with, and then HIGHLIGHT your total text and Cut 'n Paste it into the "REPLY TO POSTING". dialogue box. E.G. . . . . here is YOUR prior posting as it was initially seen: Why are some postings real W I D E & some are normal width. The W I D E ones go W A Y off the screen? When a person clicks on a name & then goes back to the original posting, it't comes back normal for a split second then goes V E R Y--W I D E! Someone posted a message similar to the words of trying to do a certain thing (can't remember just how it was worded, but I remember reading it! Sometimes the scroll bar goes only half-way across the bottom. They said in general to try to do something a little different. Something about getting being a nuicence? having to scroll back & forth to read something. I don't remember who posted it, just remember reading it. Now I run across the same thing so I can share that persons grievence. I'll check back later on the past postings. Also some are real small in width, those are less of a nuicence (BTW . . . the all jammed together textual composure above, reminds me of a critique /castigation that I received from a 3rd grade teacher, for a theme which I had created, by using the four l o o o o o o n g e s t "run on" sentences that she had EVER seen, in all of her 40 year tenure.) It is now being recomposed as: Why are some postings real W I D E & some are normal width. The W I D E ones go W A Y off the screen? When a person clicks on a name & then goes back to the original posting, it't(sic) comes back normal for a split second(comma) then goes V E R Y--W I D E! Someone posted a message similar to the words of trying to do a certain thing (can't remember just how it was worded, but I remember reading it! Sometimes the scroll bar goes only half-way across the bottom. They said in general(comma) to try to do something a little different. Something about getting being a nuicence(sic)? having to scroll back & forth to read something. I don't remember who posted it, just remember reading it. Now I run across the same thing(comma) so I can share that persons grievence(sic). I'll check back later on the past postings. Also some are real small in width, those are less of a nuicence(sic). ON your INITIAL text . . . . . Note that the total right index margin is established by your computers/monitor screen width factors and then any entered text automatically folds back from that prescribed limit. While on the recomposed text being demonstrated just above, the ENTER function had either activated the line returns or generated a space between the lines "Sometimes the scroll bar goes only half-way across the bottom." Is indicating that the TOTAL width of the line margin limits is being larger, somehere UP or DOWN the whole page, and that you are now being at an intermediary position. All in all . . . its probably best to compose a post afar . . . . by using a word processing program . . . and minimally with Word Pad or Word Perfect, such that you can also utilize its spell check feature. OR you could cut and past your composed post into the "REPLY TO POSTING" DIALOGUE box, where spell check is automatically initiated and you will then see any errors being RED underlined . Did this help any ? BTW I generally post in full HTML mode, such that I can utilze colors, BOLDING and different fonts PLUS accommodating the array of schematics which I post, and I typically opt to make them LARGE, so they are even easy for Mr Magoo to read. . . . .mumble . . . . mumble . . . .(" Ehhh what say there Waldo ?") Had I posted a schematic on the same page as my preliminary relevant text . . . . . you would then KNOW what a wide posting REALLY is. I opt to place them separately, just below my boxed in initial post. 73's de Edd The next time when I go to the ATM, and just after the money comes out, I'm going to jump up and down, flail my arms about wildly and then shout out for all to hear "I won!" "I won again!" . . . " its the 3rd time this week ! "
