it is not an ECF problem, other web pages are not displaying full screen

Ctrl 0 is the option to display the page as it is

Ctrl + Ctrl - can enlarge it or reduce it

I think you might be mistaken. I was full screen when I left to eat supper and now that I am back I am thin screened. Unless somebody broke into my house while I was out eating nothing has changed with my computer.

Pete54, since you're the only person that has given the most crucial piece of information... could you lower your resolution and report back on if it changed.

lowering the resolution does not help,it only move the space without information to the side.

the solution is fit the info space into the canvas ,

I changed the resolution and yes the size of the forum part of the screen got bigger but that was to be expected. When making websites in my past I remember that I needed code that would automatically adjust the size of the content of my web page to different screen resolutions, as well as keep the content centered on the screen.

That's what I thought it was, there are a couple ways to do things when it comes to resolution. You can either just let it do whatever it wants (which means things might not look right), force it to take one size and put a colored background around it (which seems to be what is going on here), or as you stated. The second solution is generally viewed as the best, but has to be tested at various resolutions to make sure that it doesn't do what is being done here (in my case I have just a little grey on either side, it all looks fine).

Not sure what happened to change it, but this should be enough information for the web guys to look into it and get it fixed.

If anyone else wants to post their experience, try to include OS, Browser (and version, if you know), and what resolution your screen is set at currently.

Now I understand what some people were saying as "Thin".

And YES.

If I set my Resolution at 1280 x 1024 I get Just what Liscab shows.
