BIOS Updates forum

I have discovered that sometimes the table in which topic lists and message windows are displayed sometimes expands beyond it's usual width.

For example, I have my monitor set to 1280 * 1024, and with this setting the table normally displays nicely in the page borders. But in Tomaz's (recent) post, Page 2 displays in a wider than normal table and I have to scroll a little. Page 1 displays OK. On the other hand, I have looked at another 2 page post for comparison, which to my surprise, displays OK.

Is this a problem in the board software than can be looked into and addressed, or would there be a setting at my end I could adjust so that the table size always stays the same? There must be some content on page 2 on the Tomaz's post thread that causes the default table size setting to be overrided and increased.

It's a very lonk Link causing this wide-screen .

There must be an option in the Forum-Software to cut the full display of such long links

Yeah...sorry about that...it's just how it came out when I pasted it in there...

to fix the problem caused by long links:

Yup Toby B...that would have done it...

(I fixed it BTW... )

Yep - this works but the Forum Software must have an option to brake down the Link - not displaying the full link in the table but the link is still working as the adress is accessible .

afraid not, unless there is a MOD that allows this.

There must be a switch or mod the Admin has to activate

The phpBB system is not very advanced and also not very secure. But it's free and it works.

I'll add the following MOD:
