The Dogmother Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 This one is really weird and it happened last night - I was using my Hotmail account when the font ont the page went all big. The message I was typing was fine, but all the other font on the page is large. I thought that it was some sort of Hotmail update gone wrong again, but it's still like that tonight. It seems restricted to the Hotmail, Wikipedia and Google pages only, all other webpages seem fine, although I haven't been on many as I haven't got the time. Word and other programs on my PC seem fine, so it's not the screen resolution... Hmmm. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Strange one . What does "view", "text size" say? Is it different on the different webpages? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubereglu Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 That happens to our computer too sometimes, after you've changed the screen onto a different site it's fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziggy Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 ooooh.... we're all going to try this, aren't we.... I didn't know about it either... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted April 28, 2008 Author Share Posted April 28, 2008 Thanks for the suggestions, all of which I'd tried. Just been stabbing around and managed to sort it without knowing what I was doing. What had foxed me was that it was only on some sites, and I initially thought that it was some glitch to do with a 'latest version' of Hotmail - they're always doing daft stuff! I think that the reason that it only happened on some sites is down to their different templates. Anyroad, it's sorted now - I just needed to not be in such a hurry Thanks for listening.

Snowy Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 Do you have a slidey pad thingy to scroll with? It works on mine if I press control and slide my finger on the pad! Cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 I think I might know. Claret are you on Firefox? If so, this happens to me sometimes & you have to clear your data. Go to tools at the top, & press clear private data. It happens to me once every couple of months or so,but doing this always sorts it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
