RE: [Zope] Text won't Wrap on Zope site
It seems the site in general is tailored to an 800x600 resolution -- which isn't a high resolution by most standards today. Some of the pages, such as the Zope 2.0.0a4 download screen, only fit well within 1024x768 pixels, which isn't a high resolution either (you can run this resolution comfortably on a good 15" display, which sell (the good ones, that is) for about $200 nowadays), but that's not to say it's ideal, or even acceptable. :-> -- Alexander Staubo http://www.mop.no/~alex/ "He could open a tin of sardines with his teeth, strike a Swan Vestas on his chin, rope steers, drive a steam locomotive and hum all the works of Gilbert and Sullivan without becoming confused or breaking down in tears." --Robert Rankin, _The Book of Ultimate Truths_

Minor annoyance: I'm traveling and using my laptop that only has 600x800 resolution and with IE 5 and medium font selected and full screen view the text at:
***Example from Jim's recent note:
Zope 2.0 alpha 4 is available (finally) at: http://www.zope.org/Download/Releases/Zope-2.0.0a4
TEXT Does NOT wrap! It requires using scroll bars to read.
Is this due to the use of style sheets? If so, they need tweeking. Currently, it is not "stylish".
This may not be a problem for developers that have large screens but it is good to be "nice" to all users.
What is the cause -- what parameter is causing this problem and what is the solution? This has been a problem in the past.
I haven't tested with Netscape because it's not installed on this machine.
thank you.

Which is something I never understood. I run on a 1024x768 screen, but that doesn't mean that all my Netscape windows are full-screen. 648x743 seems to be the size of the day on my laptop. Designing pages for a screen size shows that you actually were designing a paper brochure - backwards thinking ;-) -- Cees de Groot http://www.cdegroot.com <cg@cdegroot.com>
