Layout too wide

IWP newbie question

[Jerremy]

Hi all,

While looking for an answer, I found this question.... With no answer

What controls this? I'd like to not have a scroll bar on the bottom of the page when all the data the user needs is right in front of them.

Also, a related question, it seems to do this with portals as well - adds an unwanted and unneeded horizontal scroll bar.

Anyone know why IWP does this to the page - adding horizontal scroll bars for no reason? ...And how to make it not do this?

Thanks for your help,

Jerremy

Hi.

I have the same problem - unnecessary horisontal scrollbar in portals on the web.

But I have a theory:

It's the combination FM instant publishing/Safari. The default vertical scrollbar in Safari is wider than the one in FM, so it leaves to small horisontal space for the portal - so it think it needs a scollbar.

If you look at you web page on a PC with Internet Explorer, there is no hor.scrollbar, and here you can see the vertical scrollbar is not so wide as Safari's.

How to fix it - I have not found yet though.
