Just an FYI...
I was looking at this thread in 3 different browsers:
http://www.computing.net/answers/of...
The issue is with Response Number 5 where I submitted some VBA code. This post is wider than the rest of the posts in the thread and the Mozilla products - Firefox 3.0.6 and Netscape 7.1 don't handle that very well.
In both of the Mozilla products, the ad next to Response Number 5 overlaps the text of the post, while IE7 expands the page and adds the horizontal scroll bar. Therefore the ad is next to the post where it belongs.
Can anybody else duplicate that issue, at least in Firefox vs. IE?

Hey,
You're correct. However, this really isn't a bug. There is no good way to handle when that happens.

I don't do too much with web pages, but I was wondering if you could give a brief explanation of why the Mozilla products have a problem but not IE.
Just trying to learn stuff...

Hey,
No problem. The basic answer is that Mozilla and IE handle CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) differently. Ask any web developer what the bane of his existence is, and he will, no doubt, say, the differences in the way Mozilla and IE handle CSS :)

Also, the post is wider because you copy/pasted the code from notepad.
Notepad is a registry editor and registry code is single line only if you copy and paste it will auto keep the ratio aspect of how it is written in notepad. Web pages are code and must keep the same aspect. Thius the web page will enlarge to accept the code as single line editing.Change Is Good

re:

I copied the code from the Excel VBA Editor window.
The same thing happens if I copy a long formula from the formula bar of an Excel spreadsheet. See this thread as an example:
http://www.computing.net/answers/of...

Notepad is not registry editor.
It's an editor that can be used to alter the registry because it doesn't add formating internally.
Big difference.
