Horizontal scroll

jyloh · 10-28-2002, 04:11 AM

There are quite a few sites with a very wide left margin that cause a very long horizontal span.  The result is constant horizontal scrolling which is very inconvenient for PDA reading.  Is there any way to avoid this kind of situation?  A good example is the CNet or CliePlannet site.

I'm very new to Isilo.  Therefore, please forgive me for my ignorance about some of my comments.

jyloh, I was asked this already by others by mail, so don't worry

Simply start your document in iSilo, then go to the menu bar, to options -> display -> tables -> single column

That should do it.

That's a great tip. Thank you very much!

I tried this solution and it worked on the home page, but it didn't work on the pages that were linked from the home page. Is there a way to get the sub-pages to also reflow?

Thank you so much for explaining this! I was just about to ask about it.

As for it not working on linked pages, it doesn't work precisely, but it does make them more manageable I've noticed.
