Zooming

April 20th, 2012
How come when I zoom in on a photo here (click the magnify glass), it won't let me scroll down? well the scroll bar moves up and down but the photo doesn't... i just see the top of it.

Press F11 to make it work :-)

It looks like whoever wrote the page designed it for IE but not for every other browser. The HTML code SCROLL="no" to hide the scroll bar only works in IE. There is a way to do this using CSS that works on all browsers, but it appears whoever coded the webpage used the HTML method instead. When I press the magnifying glass, the full image comes up and fills my window. The scroll bar on the right does indeed move up and down, but that looks purely ornamental to me. (I'm using Firefox, so the scroll bar appears where it shouldn't.) As the photo is already full screen (and trying it on several boxes it does look like it resizes properly based on the screen size) there's really nothing to scroll. The scroll bar shouldn't be displayed.

Upon further review, it looks like (for vertical shots) it only sizes properly in IE. The scroll bar is still there but it's still ornamental. Vertical shots are cutoff at the bottom of the page in other browsers. Conclusion: Defective code in the HTML that creates the full page view of the image.

Same problem with me in the past; I use Google Chrome. Now, however, when I click "zoom", it merely takes me to another screen that shows the pic all by itself in the same size it was on the previous screen! =-(

I use to use Ctrl+ & Ctrl-, even though it makes photos unclear :)
