Web browsing shifted to the left

Hi all
Don't know how it happened but I have most webpages loading the page on the left side of the browser. Normally I have the browser on full size covering all of the widescreen. What used to happen was the pages loaded at the centre. Today most are loading on the left side leaving a huge space on the right side of the browser. Sites like planetf1.com or hotmail use to load with all the text and pictures in the middle of the screen....not anymore. I've tried resetting safari but no luck. Any clues?

Planet-F1 is designed as a fixed-width page. There is no adjustments made as you change the browser's window. Make the window too narrow and you get a horizontal scroll bar. Make it wider than the page and you get white space to the right of the page. This page is like the FoxNews example except that Foxnews has a tilling background image so you see that instead of white space when you widen the browser window. I have no idea if Planet-F1 has always been like this or has recently been redesigned as this the first time I can recall that I have gone there.
Pages will be anchored to the left unless they are designed to adjust their size when the browser window width is changed. This represents the two extremes of web-page design.
One the one hand is the browser-independent design theory that the designer has no control over what browser or operating system a user will be using or what size terminal or browser window will be used. In this scenario you purposely design your page so that elements expand or shrink horizontally depending on the width of the browser window.
At the other extreme is magazine or printed page page-layout design. Here the designer wants complete control of what the user sees, including what is placed where. This is an inflexible design that works well for the printed page but which causes scroll bars or extra white-space if the browser window is not the same width as the web page.
Those are the two extremes. Many web sites are designed using a mixture of page-layout and flexible design principles. These discussion forums are an example. The message area expands or shrinks and the tabs stay centered as you widen or shrink your browser window. However, the sidebar and the tabs themselves do not adjust as you change the width of your window.

  • Adobe Muse page is shifting to the left

    Hello,
    I love Adobe Muse and have been using it for some time now. I HAVE had this problem before but it was due to elements being placed outside of the page area, so of course I investigated that first. Unfortunately, I'm still having that problem and I've triple checked my elements to make sure they werent hanging off but I'm still not getting the page to allign when opening the page in IOS. I read another feed that offered a code = <meta name = "viewport" content = "width = XXX" initial-scale = 1.0> to be put into the metadata but that isn't working either. I have included a link to the page below.
    Can anyone lend a hand? It would be greatly appreciated.
    http://ultimateretreats.org

    I am having a similar problem when I preview my mobile in Muse. All of my content gets shifted to the left or the menu get's shifted to the left. I don't have any elements or objects on the page the are overlaping into the browser background area of the site either. Please check out the screen shots that I have included below. I would VERY much appreciate a solution to this problem.
    Thank you!

  • I have an iPod Touch and am going on a cruise where I have been told that I won't be able to use Safari so I should download Firefox.  I found "Mercury Web Browser" Firefox at the app store.  Is this what I need? I'm leaving on Sept. 3rd.

    I have an iPod Touch and am going on a cruise where I have been told that Safari won't work on the ship so I need to download Firefox. My iPod said that Safari cna't download it from the Firefox website.  I found "Mercury Web Browser" Firefox, in the app store (free) and am wondering if that is what I need?  Help, I'm leaving on Sept. 3/12.  Thanks.

    - I never heard that but it may be true. It could be that for some reason Safari can't be used to log into the network. Once logged in, Safari should work fine
    - However, I see nothing that say the Mercury Web Browser is Firefox. I would contact the cruise line and ask if and how you use the ship's['s wifi for an iPhone or iPad (it will apply to iPod touch)

  • While using Skype on my mac pro the screen freezes and splits in two and the left hand side shifts to the right and the right shifts to the left with a large black block down the centre, should I take it back to store as it is only a month old??

    I have only had my mac one month and it seems while I use Skype the screen freezes and I cant click on anything and everything on the right hand side of the screen shifts to the left and the left to the right with a back block down the centre and sometimes lines running down the screen over all. As it is almost brand new should I be going back to store to get this problem fixed??

    Yes.  You are still under warranty.  Why waste it?

  • Screen shifts to the left and left half of my screen appears on the right.

    So there were some issues with my Harddrive, after having it replaced at the genius bar I chose to reinstall everything rather then just restoring from my Time machine.
    After reinstalling Mountain Lion my screen occasionally shifts to the left and the left half of my screen appears on the right.
    It seem completely random and occurs randomly. I haven't been able to tie it to any specific program.
    After a couple of days of this happening once or twice a day I called apple and they suggested I do a fresh reinstall and don't move any of my data over and see if the error re-occurs. It didn't (tried it for 1-2 days..) but it might well be lucky/random that it didn't happen.
    In any case.. since I couldn't deal for another day without my stuff I restored from Time Machine and the error did happen again.
    So... it's something on my mac. I've done all updates... obviously
    I have no idea what to do.. Everytime it happens, my mac just freezes and I can't do anything but for shutdown by pressing the shutdown menu.
    How can I debug this? Anyone ever heard of this before?
    Here are some screenshots: let me know if you need anything else.

  • Everything shifts to the left while using flash player on Chrome

    So, for a month or so Flash has been doing this to me:
    http://i.imgur.com/6VjST.png
    Notice how there are two scroll bars? Now i could deal with that, but the problem is, everything shifts to the left - meaning i have to go further to the right to select text, links, or change the options in the Youtube flash player. This doesn't just happen with Youtube, but really with any website i've seen so far that has video playback. Also, it may seem like the left bar in the video is bigger, that's Fraps's fault. This only seems to happen on Chrome, and only on this very specific laptop i'm using (An HP Pavillon g6 if that helps).
    I'd like to know how i can fix this bug, because it's been... well, bugging me. Pun not intended.

    I believe you are running into the following bug: Issue 140239 - An additional scroll bar appears at the right on many sites
    From what I understand, this is fixed with the Chrome Canary build (a beta release of Chrome) and if all goes to plan, will eventually wind up in their released build soon.

  • The "alt, ctrl and shift" on the left side of my keyboard keys integrated notebook did not work. What should I do?

    The "alt, ctrl and shift" on the left side of my keyboard keys integrated notebook did not work. What should I do?

    Hi Luis Fernando Garcia,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  This article has troubleshooting for keys not working on your keyboard:
    One or more keys on the keyboard do not respond
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1381
    Some keys don't work as expected
    From the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
    From the View menu, choose Speech.
    Click the Text to Speech tab.
    If "Speak selected text when the key is pressed" is enabled, the key or key combination set to speak text cannot be used for other purposes or used to type text--click Set Key and change it to a less-commonly used key combination (try to use modifier keys such as Shift, Command, Option, and Control). Or, disable the "Speak selected text when the key is pressed" option.
    Click the Universal Access pane in System Preferences, click the Keyboard tab.
    Make sure that Slow Keys is turned off. With Slow Keys on, you need to press a key for a longer period of time for it to be recognized.
    In the Universal Access pane, click the Mouse tab, and make sureMouse Keys is turned off. With Mouse Keys enabled, you cannot use the Numeric Keypad to enter numbers--instead the keypad moves the pointer (cursor). (There is an option to enable Mouse Keys with five presses of the Option key; you may want to turn that option off to avoid accidentally enabling it.) If Mouse Keys is enabled and you are using a keyboard with no numeric keypad or Num Lock function, seeUnable to type while Mouse Keys is enabled in Mac OS X.
    If the function keys on the top row of the keyboard are not working as expected, see Mac OS X: How to change the behavior of function keys.
    If the issue persists, use Keyboard Viewer to help isolate the issue:
    Click the Language & Text pane (Mac OS X v10.6) or International pane (Mac OS X v10.5.8 or earlier) in System Preferences.
    Click the Input Sources tab (or Input Menu tab in Mac OS X 10.5.8 or earlier).
    Click the Keyboard & Character Viewer "On" checkbox to select it (click the Keyboard Viewer "On" checkbox in Mac OS X 10.5.8 or earlier).
    From the Input (flag) menu, choose Show Keyboard Viewer.
    If the keyboard is connected and detected by Mac OS X, the keys you type will highlight in the Keyboard Viewer window. Open TextEdit (or any text application), and try to type something using the keys that were previously not responding to see if they highlight in Keyboard Viewer.
    Cheers,

  • Some pages shift to the left on iOS mobile platform

    This  persistent problem is driving me nuts. Some pages of my mobile sites shift to the left. All of the pages are similarly sized: 420 w x 570 h.As recommended in another thread, I inserted <meta name = "viewport" content = "width = XXX" initial-scale = 1.0> in the metadata to no avail. An example can be found here: http://rockandvine.businesscatalyst.com/index.html.

  • Payment medium - Text fields shifted to the left

    Hello Experts,
    after running the payment run, the payment media is created but the text fields that are written in the files are shifted to the left.
    The files contains 4 text fields. In the first text field should be written the value LS_REF1 and in the second one the value LS_REF3
    If LSREF1 is blanc, then the value of LS_REF3 is written in the first text field.
    Is it possible to avoid that SAP shift the fields to the left? In the function module FKK_PAYM_DEDIUM_WRITE is used the FM FKK_DME_DETAILS_FILL, which shift the values.
    Cheers and thanks in advance
    Edited by: prashak80 on Jul 23, 2010 12:16 PM

    In the respective field properties (double click the field node), goto Attributes tab.  There you'll find a field 'Conv. function'.  Press F4. You'll be presented with many functions.  Scroll down and find functions starting with C.  Select the one that best suits your needs.  This is for maintaining the alignment within the field output.
    If your problem is that REF1 field is skipped when there are no values and that's what is causing the alignment as REF3 is shifted to that extent, then you need REF1 field to output at any cost irrespective of any values are present. In this case, check the status filed in the same tab.  The status field should be blank (standard).
    You can also consider Target offset field.  This will offset as many number of characters in the output field.  You might have to play with these settings.
    Hope this helps.
    Ravi.

  • IPhone 6 front camera shifted to the left

    MY iPhone 6's camera is shifted to the left, and there is a gray crescent showing to the right of it. The model is: A1549.

    So, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of the nearest Apple Store and have the device looked at. If it is determined to be a manufacturing defect, they will replace it. This is a user to user forum, so no one here could really help you fix it.

  • Site shifts to the left on iOS

    My website looks fine on my laptop but when I view it on the ipad it shifts to the left. I have no content to the right which would do this.
    Also, I was trying to make an image large so that it would continue to be seen to the left and right of the site on larger screens but this made the ios shift even further to the left. I decided to scrap this part for now but I still have the shifting issue.
    Any ideas?
