Web page super small

I am wondering why internet pages don't fill the whole screen. I have stretched my internet from the bottom right corner so that it takes up the whole 17" screen, but all the web content stays super tight in the center. It just seems so small and is kindof annoying that I have to squint sometimes to see the font!
Any idea on how to maximize the web content to fill the whole screen??

In Safari you can set the size and type of Font used for most web page displays, open Safari/Preferences/Appearance then click 'Select' next to Standard width Font and choose something that suits you better.
Or, open-pinch the screen laterally and it will enlarge everything.

PDF links in IE7 web page open small

When trying to open a link on a web page I click the button "view" and the PDF page opens small.
In the past, using earlier versions of Adobe Reader, I did not have this problem of the PDF page opening small.
I drag the page to full size, but it does not save in the full size.
I have tried everything recommended on MS tech support pages to save the page full, but none of the solutions work for the PDF page.
I have repaired and re-installed Adobe Reader but the PDF page still opens small.
I am running under Vista Home Premium 64bit IE7
Thanks for any help you can offer to make the PDF page open full when clicking the "view" button

Hi,
Try this hotfix and check after rebooting the machine:

Why are my web pages so small?

I've noticed when using my iPhone (3G) that some web pages, when double-clicked, briefly flicker, like they're trying to expand, but then they return quickly to their original mini size. Other web pages, when double-clicked expand to a larger more readable size. Why is this happening? Is this a web page design issue or is it inherent in the iPhone?

Not always. I've come across a few that don't resize. It's not common but it does happen.

Provide best methodology to improve the speed of the web page

provide best methodology to improve the speed of the web page.

Use smaller images.
Here's an idea.. why don't you explain exactly what problem you are trying to solve... Gee how clever.
Do you have a page that takes minutes to load? If yes... remove "stuff". That is how to make it faster. There is no other magic way (unless of course the problem is that it takes that length of time to process the page on your server but for the moment we will assume that is not the case)
What stuff should you remove? Content. Images..... as described above. This isn't rocket science. If you are another one of these self described J2EE experts who has made a page that displays 20,000 database records at one time your page is going to be slow until you remedy your shoddy design.
But whatever the real problem is the way to make a page "faster" is to remove "stuff" from it. What that stuff is and what you should remove are entirely known only to you... so really asking anyone else is pointless.

After the recent update the entire browser, including menus, icons, and everything on the web page, are too small. Fonts are smaller, pics are smaller, zoom settings will not remain universal. Minimum font size will make text readable, but all pics are to

The new update has screwed up my browser settings, I cannot get them fixed and Im pissed because my computer is an eye-sore to read until this is fixed! EVERYTHING in the browser is smaller, fonts, menus, icons, web page content, pictures, tables, etc. I have set the minimum font in the settings and the text is just to a point where it is easily readable at the maximum size setting, but all the menus and icons are still tiny and hard to read. The last version I had installed worked fine with no add-ons needed. Everything fit the screen fine and was easily readable without modification. I want this version off my PC and I want the last version I had back on but I dont know what version it was!!!!!!! ARARGGGG
In fact, this stupid troubleshooting window that I am in filling out this form doesnt fit the page right at all, and edges of the text are cut off, so Im not even sure what some of these boxes are asking for!!

See [[Toolbars and page content appear too large after upgrading to Firefox 3]]
*Try to adjust the DPI setting, see http://kb.mozillazine.org/layout.css.dpi
*Try to set the pref layout.css.devPixelsPerPx to 2 on the about:config page.
To open the ''about:config'' page, type '''about:config''' in the location (address) bar and press the Enter key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.

I recently upgraded to iOS 7.0. When I open Safari to a blank page, a small "Settings" icon appears against the white background. When I click on it, it opens a link to a web page that is not among my other bookmarks. How can I get rid of it?

In some web pages, pdf files are downloaded in very small kb and not opening despite I have Adobe reader, Pro and plug in

I have Firefox 3.6.6, downgraded from higher versions since I have this problem below.
At some web pages (mostly professional academic sites like Oxford Journals), when I am clicking to get pdf of an article, Firefox start downloading ridiculously small size and cannot open it as it gives the message "Acrobat could not open 'filename.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged ..."
I know the file is not damaged, because I can open them in explorer. And some websites are also working properly in Firefox. I do not care if it opens in firefox or pops up separately.
I have reloaded Acrobat and Firefox but problem continues.

hello vijayabhaskarv, that sounds as if you're using the pdf viewer built into firefox per default, which might not work in all situations. please see the following article in order to select a different plugin to render pdf files: [[How to disable the built-in PDF viewer and use another viewer]]

Web page displays much too small

I'm trying to develop a web page to display on the Pre, but no matter what I set the size of the page to it shows up very small on the Pre.
Here's the raw html. Changing the font size to large didn't seem to change anything. No matter what it shows up very small in the upper left of the screen.

You may need to set the viewport in a meta tag.
http://developer.palm.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=1574&Itemid=26
The webOS browser supports the viewport meta-tag, which allows sites to control the rendering width, initial zoom factor, maximum/minimum zoom factors, and whether zooming is allowed.
<meta name="viewport" content="width=320; initial-scale=1.0; user-scalable=no">

My web pages appear out of alignment on small screens.

Hi,
My web pages are correct on my large monitor but, the right side of the pages go out of alignment on smaller screens such as my laptop or even if I reduce the window size of my monitor. I used a 2 col, hdr, ftr, liquid layout in html 5. I did a browser check and fixed the suggested errors but it didn't fix the alignment thing. The site is http://www.thelandingivylea.com

You have the wrong design for a liquid layout. Since you certainly want to retain your design, give the DIVs fixed widths.

Google search, gmail, most web pages are suddenly much smaller - Why?

Suddenly, almost all web pages are now smaller. I have not changed monitors or reset the resolution on my monitor. I use the "control +" but the size reverts if I move off the original page. I cannot read most of the Google search results. I am having to resize every page I come to.

Reset the page zoom on pages that cause problems, make sure that the window is not maximized:
*<b>View > Zoom > Reset</b> (Ctrl+0 (zero); Cmd+0 on Mac)
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Zoom_text_of_web_pages

Why does my web page reduce so small I can't read it?

Why does my web page reduce so small I can't read it?

The type is small on the website but that's because of all the stuff that they are cramming onto the page. A couple of other users made this same comment about eBay a while ago, as I recall.
There is no setting in Safari in which you can enlarge the size of the text.

Safari lion has small window that scrolls up from the bottom of the web page

Since up grading to Safari Lion (6.0.2) I get this window creeping up from the bottom of the web page.
That little window asks "searching for ....what ever I've typed in my google search engine...." and slowely scrolls up from the bottom of the web page. If I click just right on it it goes away to reappear on the next web page. If I click anywhere on it though it redirects to a rxlist page or some health page etc. Not related to my search at all.
Also, since upgrading the following have been recurring and prominate pain in the necks
1) I can't scroll down on the page using my mouse. Only with the up and down arrows
2) Sometimes when I type a querrie into my search engine line at the top of the brower, it auto redirects to some radom website. Again usually rxlist or vibes caster shop.com etc etc. It does not happen 100% of the time but 80%
3) When I am typing in my search querries, I can't backspace to delete. I have to highlight and retype the entire search.
4) i know I'm going to sound crazy but if I search in google for "safari ... problems" etc. all problems go away and I can surf to my heart's content. It's like as soon as I start complaining it knows and auto corrects!!
FYI I always delete all history, and cache using the "reset safari, and the develop tab and then empty caches.
Do I have a virus of some kind? What do I need to do? Anyone have similiar problems?
Thanks a million in advance for any of your help.
Kevin

Check out TonyE's answer found here: <br>
https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/804377#answer-158895
He pretty much says you should install the Status-4-Evar addon: <br>
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/status-4-evar
Once you install it, check its options and there should be a setting to turn off that small popup box. And I don't think you have to do the about:config part, that setting affects other popups that you probably want.

Web pages suddenly aren't printing correctly - thefont is very small and it only prints part of the info centered on the page -what can I do about this?

The printing on the page uses only about 1/6 to 1/8 of the width of the paper and is centered and only prints about 27 characters and in a very small font. Also some web pages won't print out any info at all except for header info at the top.

OMG, thank you! It worked. Here's what I did (I have a Mac):
File-> Page Setup...->
# Settings: <page attributes>
# Format for: I made sure my printer was selected.
# Paper size: I put <US Letter> or <borderless 8.5" x 11"> both work. This is where the settings had been off!
# Scale: I put <100%> - it had been at 500% which didn't help either.

In printing web pages, why do pages following the first print in smaller font?

When I print web pages, pages after the first print smaller font. Why?

Try the '''''reset''''' described here: <br />

Firefox 3.6.13 upgrade prints only a small section of a web page on each printed page

Firefox prints as though the left, right, and bottom margins are very large, so that printing occurs in a small rectangle (1" wide x 3" high) centered toward the top of the page. The print preview shows the same small rectangle of text except that it is located at the left of the screen instead of centered. The result is that many paper pages are printed for each web page (e.g., 15 pages to print http://meyerweb.com/eric/articles/webrev/200001/example3.html whereas IE8 prints this in 2 pages). This occurs for all web pages that I have tried to print and is not isolated to a particular web site.
In the print setup, all margins are set to 0.5". I have tried resetting these but it didn't help.

When I do Ctrl+P from within Firefox and then select Properties for the HL-1440 printer driver, the paper size is A4 which gives the printing problem. Changing the paper size to Letter from within Firefox still gives the same problem.
Correction from previous post: Before printing with the LaserJet 4 printer driver (while the HL-1440 driver is still the default), the print-preview shows the small rectangle of text (see the image of my previous post). However, once I print using the LaserJet 4 driver (which prints correctly) then any subsequent print-preview while using the LaserJet 4 driver correctly displays the page (full width and height). Hence, there seems to be some conflict between this version of Firefox and the factory HL-1440 driver.
Note: All printing is done to the same physical printer (Brother HL-1440). In all cases the printer properties are set to Portrait and Shrink-to-fit.
