Normally Yahoo sets the browser page code width 100%, used to be 88%. That news front page is set a fixed width now 793 pixels. news.yahoo will show that width in anything a person might decide to view it with. Probably somebody screwed up because they could put advertising there,,, wasted space doesn't cost them anything but would think they would want to capitalize on it. ... maybe sidebar advertizements will fill it up later today.

Jane: Thanks for your response. Yes, I have that checked and it -does- save the password info, but I still have to go thru the log in process, just don't have to re-enter the info. I was trying to find a way that when I used my bookmark for the site to open it, it would do an 'auto login' like it does here. I searched a long time yesterday and found out from some others on that particular site that the site only supports Firefox 1.5. So that answers that question. Shirley

mago this is what it says about dom inspector on the firefox site: DOM Inspector is a tool that can be used to inspect and edit the live DOM of any web document or XUL application. The DOM hierarchy can be navigated using a two-paned window that allows for a variety of different views on the document and all nodes within. Note: This add-on depends on binary changes to Firefox, and will not work with Firefox 2. I do not have it, never used it, so can not comment on it, if you do not use it then you can easily remove it. In fact I see you have ff 2 and it says that dom inspector does not work with ff 2??? There is a post some pages back that I had started called tips and tricks that thread has a lot of good info on ff ad ons and other useful stuff.

Yeah, sorry, I'm not expert enough to explain the difference, just pointing out that there is a difference. My banking sites work fine without Java. I wasn't implying your problem is Javascript, just that it's not Java. Javascript is not something you manually update, it's built into the browser and updates when you update the browser. Personally, I wouldn't rush to reinstall Windows if all the problems are in Firefox. First, I'd try the "reset" that you tried. If that didn't work, I'd uninstall Firefox and reinstall it. If that didn't work, I'd do it again but make sure it didn't leave anything behind. Make sure it removed my old Firefox profile, maybe even run CCleaner's registry cleaner to make sure all Firefox registry entries were removed. Then if after all that it still didn't work right... I'd consider reinstalling Windows. I'm not an expert though so I'm saying that's what you should do, just telling you what I'd do. BTW, every time I've ever reinstalled Windows, I dreaded it but ended up glad I did. Machine ran snappy new again. Sorry I can't help more.
