User:Dispenser/oversize overflow

This is a simulation of the problem encountered by small screen users on scroll boxes, such as libraries (commonly 800x600) or notebook user (typically 1024x600). Notice how you cannot read this text and scroll horizontally at the same time. Isn't it fun interrupt you’re reading to find the scroll bar? Unless: You’re using Apple's 30" display (2560x1600) then you'll have no problem doing both at the same time. You’re using mouse with horizontal scrolling they don't even need to look for the scroll bar! You have a mouse with a middle or wheel click, but support for that varies from browser implementation.  Isn't this fun; designing for multiple resolutions, we could however make our lives easier by resizing the view port to the lowest common denominator. Then we can all rejoice in reading Wikipedia through at 320x240 looking viewport!

Now for some Lorem Ipsum:


 * Can you provide an example of a troublesome page? Usually an editor will account for this before adding a horizontal scroll bar. I can't imagine anyone would knowingly combine a horizontal scroll with wrapped text. Typically they are found on images such as panoramas. Potatoswatter (talk) 15:32, 9 August 2009 (UTC)
