I hate websites that assume the two are the same. Of course, as websites read this info using Javascript, the tests don't work on NetSurf anyway. Bryan.

This happens even if you have a 1920 pixel wide monitor. No other browser I have seen (not Firefox nor Safari, nor Explorer, nor Fresco, nor Oregano2) behave this way. Netserf will close all the lower columns again if you make the window narrower than 1098 pixels. I'm a tad surprised the same happens with the latest build. NetSurf r6542 (16 Feb 2009). As a matter of curiosity are there other sites that exhibit this behaviour? Luckily I know Rogers excellent site Many thanks for the compliment Richard. If you have any good flower photographs to contribute, you are welcome to submit them. All contributions acknowledged. Sadly no. Regards Richard

Do you use Geminus? If so, open its Choices and in the Accelerarion options, add an entry for NetSurf if there isn't one already and make sure the 2nd and 3rd options are unticked for NetSurf. Aha. I do indeed run Geminus. Many thanks Michael. Now 2/3rds un-ticked :-) -- Cheers Roger SHOUTING is a Capital offence

I think you can also scale most browsers such that it is scaled at less than unity magnification. It will then fit on a 1024 pixel wide screen.
