Problems with page TesNexus page layout and large fonts

Greetings, I like the site very much, but I have a problem with the page display that maybe someone can help me with. Here's an attached image to show what it looks like:

I'm using firefox on a 1600x1200 display, so I've set my fonts to 20 point (I have bad eyesight).

 

Can this be fixed on the site? I've tried a few different configuration settings with firefox, like using zoom instead, but they just cause other problems.

Thanks.

Go back into Tools, Options, Content tab and change your font back to Times New Roman, Size = 16 (which is default).

 

Then go back to that particular page and press the following keys until the font increases to the desired size: CTRL +

 

Use "CTRL -" to reduce the font size.

 

Another option is to go into your Members page, click Change your site preferences and change "Layout Style" from Block Mode to Flat Mode.

 

Tested with FireFox 3.0.5

Thanks for the reply.

 

I don't want to have to change my font size, then I'd have the onerous task of having to zoom every page I visit. And like I said, I've tried zoom, but that makes other sites look bad. I just can't win! (I miss the old days of tables, I really do:)).

 

When I go to preferences and try to change from block mode to flat mode, it says it has updated my preferences, but it doesn't change the appearance, and when I go back to preferences it still says block mode.

Try a different layout, click on the members link from any file page, then change the site preferences from block to flat mode, it should make a marked improvement and you won't have to zoom and change.

Well, like I said in my post just above yours that I tried that but the preference didn't change, if I go back to preferences, it always says block mode.

That's odd. I just tried it on mine and it remembered the setting each time. And you don't get that "settings updated" page without clicking the submit button to save the settings.

 

I wonder what could be wrong to cause the settings not to save. I will check this out with my non-admin account (Conan_Lon) to see if normal user access works.

 

EDIT: I just checked my non-admin account and was able to save the settings (block or flat). ** shrug **

Okay, I change from block to flat in preferences, exit my 3 browser windows that have 25 open tabs, restart firefox, come back to tesnexus, the preferences say "flat" mode, but then I do a search, the results are in block mode, I go back to preferences and now it says block mode. So nothing has changed for me.
