Poor fonts in web pages, cannot change using Tools/Options

Downloaded firefox 3.6 using windows xp. Web pages show very poor fonts. Unable to change fonts using the Tools/Options.

You can enable ClearType system wide for all programs to make other programs like Firefox use it.

How do I enlarge the font on web pages

how do I enlarge the font on web pages so that it stays that way all the time

Funny thing today Thomas,
Someone had a link to your site which you mentioned your first virus, the WDEF, and I chuckled as we both had the same experience all these years.
Anyway Thomas, I call it as I see it and like any IT professional, use the best tool for the job.
Did you know Steve Jobs used Linux on his renderfarm at Pixar?
So really what the problem is people's sensibilities, which they shouldn't be worried about because like IE, because of Safari being included on hardware, automatically is the first browser of choice and in no danger of losing market share on Apple hardware.
However if Safari isn't quite cutting the mustard for a particular person's needs, like this person's situation, they should be informed of a alternate solution.
Safari doesn't have nearly the amount of customization as Firefox nor the zillions of add-ons to solve just about any issue.
If people decide not to take my advice that's their choice, and they choose not too, but likely, just in this case, will come to realize the same problem I had with increasing Safari's text size and distortion of web pages.
Soon as Apple starts paying attention to their needs of their hard of seeing customers better, like myself and others, then I will most certainly recommend Safari over Firefox.

The web page cannot be found?!

Okay, I have tried NUMEROUS times to download Flash 10 after my Youtube stopped working two days ago. My pop-up blocker is off, but for some reason, it won't work. I tried to download the uninstall and my computer keeps DISPLAYING A POP UP BOX THAT SAYS "the web page cannot be found. Try again later". I tried to go ahead and just download Flash 10 and it takes me to the download page without doing anything. There's a giant white box with a red X at the top of the page. I've tried calling the phone center for help and they won't help me. PLEASE, CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME. MY YOUTUBE, MY MYSPACE, ALL OF MY STUFF IS GONE AND I CANNOT ACCESS IT. PLEASE, SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!!

Instead of using all these caps, some information would be more useful:
what is your operating system?
what is your browser?
from where are you trying to download the uninstaller?
from where are you trying to download the installer?

Query in web page cannot be displayed

Hi,
When queries are executed on the web, "page cannot be displayed" is returned.
I checked,
SMICM and HTTP is active.
SICF the BEx service is active but, when i test it , it returns page cannot be displayed.
Also, can i know where the setting is made for the port that is used when a query is run on the web from the query designer.
Any suggestions to resolve this.
Raj.

Raj,
the setting is made in the RZ10 parameters - and also you can check the active http ports through SMICM - goto --> HTTP Server details.. or something like that.

I keep getting "Reminders" that some web page cannot be opened, even when I'm not online or on the Internet, and I'd like to stop it.

For days now, a "Reminder" box pops up on my screen every few minutes. It's followed by whatever the date is. It always says that a Web page cannot be opened and to try various things, even though I'm not online or trying to open any page. I can get rid of it by opening the task manager (control, alt, delete), but it comes back in a few minutes. I tried "System Restore" but that's not working, for an unrelated reason. I'd like to stop this annoying reminder. Thanks.

Might be spyware or adware. You could try scanning for that and remove spyware if you find any.

Hi Thanks for 4.0. It runs much faster on my Mac, however, it no longer works to zoom in all of my web pages. I use to be able to use my finger pad to increase the size of all of all pages. Thanks again.

PS Are you working on a version for the iPad and iPhone with Add Blocker? That would be great!

Here are some zoom add-ons which might provide a workaround:

This happened once before and after some troubleshooting the technician wasable to get the functionality working again. The Adobe printer shows up with "Error" however I can still create PDFs from outlook.

Shive...good one..!!
One thing that you can do if you don't wanna have PPR, is to validate date column in fire action event in CO in process form request, and raise an error if you don't find appropriate format or null , as per your requirement.

Why since I installed Microsoft update KB2545698, the policy(size & style) of some web pages has changed?

the policy(size & style) of some web pages has changed.

Well, finally i'm wondering if that was caused by the FF5 update...When running FF5 in safemode the text does render correctly.

I have Acrobat XI and am trying to add pages to a pdf. Tutorials instruct to use Tools, Options or Page Thumbnail to get to a drop down command of Insert Page, does not appear as my choices.

I have Acrobat XI and am trying to add pages to a pdf. Tutorials instruct me to use Tools, Options or Page Thumbnail to get to a drop down command of Insert Page, but I have few choices in any of those places and Insert Page is not any of them.

What do you see, then?

I set Start Page as my home page. Then my "Tools" & "Option"s get changed. Mozilla takes over. SpyHunter did not fix this.

I got SpyHunter because my brower got hijacked. It fixed it...so I thought. Then they show me manually how to fix it. But there is still a problem. I set my home page as Start Page and set my "Tools","Options" the way I want. They keep getting changed to what I don't want. Start Page comes up a couple of times, then it will come up with another Mozilla tab, then it will come up as a Mozilla page all when I open the brower to surf the internet. SpyHunter is out. I am not a computer wizard, how do I get this "hidden" malware (?), spyware (?), or whatever is doing this out of my computer?
Thanks for your help.

You can also do a malware check with some malware scanning programs on the Windows computer. 
Please scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

Issue using Tools- Options- Result to Text to customize column delimiter

Hi all,
I need to export a large dataset (greater than 6 GB) to text file.
Since the dataset contains special characters, I cannot use Import and Export Wizard to export it into text file. (Error Message).
So I used Tools --> Options --> Result to Text. However, I cannot actually customize the delimiter.
First of all, I can only enter one character as the delimiter, and thus no character combination allowed.
Secondly, I entered # and ^ as the customized delimiter. Neither of them worked. The delimiter is always | (pipe), which does not work well for my dataset.
Does anybody have the same experience? Please help.
Thanks.

You don't need to do a replace, I think it will complicate the things.
Use the Import-Export Wizard to export the data.
If you have "|" in your data still you can go ahead and use the pipe character as delimiter. However in that case you should mention the text qualifier which will be used to enclose each column value.
This can be a single or many characters.
and here is how my output looked like after I exported the below table
create table TestExport(id int identity(1,1), textdata varchar(100))
insert into TestExport values('Some|deletimete~data');
I used " (double quote) as the text qualifier here
Here you will be able to distinguish between the actual delimiter and the delimiter character appearing in the data.
While exporting the data into the another data destination(I am assuming you are not going to sit and read a 6GB text file:) ), you can mention the same text qualifier and import the data

Firefox/3.5.10 to view cookies knowledge base says use tools/option: no tools/option

On freebsd7.0 or 8.2 firefox3.5.10. After upgrading the View Cookies add on no longer works.
The knowledge base says to view cookies use tools/options/Privacy. There is no Option under Tools.
How can I view a site's cookies?
Previous to View Cookies, I accessed by entering something as an URL that contain the cookie name, but I do not remember the syntax.
Can you give me the syntax.

I just looked again and firefox/ 3.10.1 has a link under edit/preferences/privacy "Remove Individual Cookies" that does let you look at the cookies. It sure is not a nice as the View Cookies 1.10.1extension before it quit working
Thanks for the help

How can I make my own design for a web page instead of using a template?

Need to ask the question again. I tried using the blank template, but could not get it to work. I could not insert images and copy where I wanted and in size I wanted.

rapcom wrote:
A general question: Is it possible to change the dimensions of the web page? Or even its positioning as a horizontal or vertical format?
Yes — it's done via iWeb Inspector's Page tab (the second one at the top), editing the values in the +Page Size+ fields. After entering a new value, click the Return key to make it take effect...
..By the way, the above image is taken from a tutorial ~ click on the image above to read the tutorial.
rapcom wrote:
I also would prefer to edit the copy on the blank web page, and cannot do that either. Is it possible to do so?
Yes, it's possible. But it's difficult to know what exact difficulty you're having, and I perhaps risk stating the obvious... One thing to be aware of is that clicking once inside a text box will simply select that box (you'll see eight +"grab handles"+ for re-sizing). But to edit the text inside, you need to click once more. Experiment with clicking inside and outside text boxes and you'll learn.
And iWeb's Help menu has several resources ~ the Help viewer, a +Getting Started+ PDF and a link to ten video tutorials. One of the videos briefly demonstrates adding a text box towards the end; click here...
If after the above you still need help, post back with step-by-step details of the problem.

How to make browser font (not web page fonts, I know how to do that) larger? Many older people need this.

Again not web page fonts. The font for the browser itself. The font for the menu, toolbars, ect. needs to be larger. My parents are 90 and 91 years young.

Use this extension to adjust the font size for the user interface:
*Theme Font & Size Changer: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/theme-font-size-changer/
*Big Buttons: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/big-buttons/
