    the fields where you type stuff in is tiny

    what this website should look like is this

    any ideas on how to fix - have tried mucking around with fonts and compatibility view - it was actually worse before but compatibility view fixed the rest of the website....

    try holding down the left CTRL button and roll the mouse scroll wheel forward. You should see the fonts start to expand.
    Sure, we dont have to worry about viking raids or scurvy anymore, but instead we make a daily routine of sitting in flimsy, fibreglass (or metal) boxes full of gasoline which are propelled in opposing directions on the freeway at velocities matching that of low flying aircraft.

    This is a roundabout way of saying that cars are dangerous....

    Hmm.. And it appears blue screen terminal is running a higher res than the gray screen terminal. Which would make everything smaller to start with. And to deal with that well there are about 300 different ways you can make one bigger or smaller as the other

    isn't that just the zoom for the webpage??? That's not the problem - it's the size of the font being used in fields where you can type stuff in.

    Resolution has nothing to do with it. That webpage looks basically the same on any computer we use. I know it's not exactly easy to see with the screenshots but the normal font that comes up when you type stuff into the webpage is a Arial font. Font has now managed to change to some weird courier type font thats about half the size. Decreasing resolution hasn't fixed it, nor do I want to run at a lower resolution. Zooming the webpage doesn't increase the font either.

    Some staff member has buggered it up somehow and I have the regular user of that computer complaining that he can't see what he is typing Click here to enlarge
