Hi Shane Longtime no see.
When i am browsing with all the browsers, I found the vertical or horizontal scrolll bars are not showing up. I am using the half sizing box at the top now to make the view of scroll bar and then seeing the contents. What to be done to rectify this.

1024x768 is a really small resolution for todays computers. Most web sites are meant to be viewed at higher resolutions than that. So what some sites do (Depending how they handle mobile users) is look at the resolution coming in and if it is under a certain size it will treat it as a mobile user and draw the mobile layout.

I had that trouble on my pcwintech site, the theme had auto support for that and I hated it, thankfully I could turn that off.

So it is possible, because of your low resolution, that sites are not drawing properly because they think you are a mobile user and not a desktop user.

At least thats what i think is going on, any chance you can increase your screen resolution to test my theory?

Hi, When i decrease or increase the resolution, i get a asterik yellow box warning of defect display of items. When i change to 1024x768, it does not give any warning and i think that this is the resolution suitable for my computer. Would control + control - anything to do with the browser size. I remember that once my son increased view in gmail by control+, which made my other viewings difficult. I then restored the gmail by control - to get back to some size which were resembling previous viewing. I do not know the exact default settings of gmail. Ok.
I did not notice then . To day, when i browse your website, the vertical scroll bar could be see seen, but for horizontal i have to half size the screen to see the scroll bar.
Any idea how to correct this.

What size monitor do you have that you get a warning about having a higher resolution?

Post a screen shot of what you mean about the scroll bars, without seeing what you are talking about it is going to be hard for me to try and find an answer

Hi, Please see this Shane

Shane · « **Reply #5 on:** July 29, 2014, 10:30:44 am »

Yes, that error is simply saying that if the display is "below" 1024x768 that items may not fit on the page.

1280x600 is a odd resolution I dont see very often. What kind of system do you have? so I can go look up what the resolution is suppose to be at.

Hi, Shane I am having windows 7 ultimate 32 bit

Shane · « **Reply #7 on:** July 30, 2014, 11:45:45 am »

No, not what version of windows. What computer manufacturer and what model is the computer itself?

Hi, Shane i got it fixed.
The solution:
Some body has used control+ to increase the default web size, i could use control -to reduce the zoom size but not knowing the exact default.
I tried so much solutions, and one such solution to revert to default size is using,
control and press zero only one time,
Awesome simple solution to this vexed problem.
Now i could see both vertical and horizontal scroll bar.
The solution is that simple. Thanks
My computer is assembled set, having lg monitor 700e, inter processor and windows 7.
The solution is control zero

Ah so it was the zoom that was doing it. Good find
