I forgot how.
I can't read the whole sentence. It runs into a colored area.
What's the trick to adjust the page, please?

not even sure if this will help, but I just Google it heres one of its answer`s it gave...


There are generally two reasons that pages do not "wrap" to fit inside the browser window:
Designer's choice. To fit in everything horizontally, the designer used a specific pixel width that exceeds the width of the "viewport" in your browser window. There is no easy way to break the fixed layout and force the content to wrap.

Unbreakable content. Firefox will not break a word in the middle when it is in a table cell. Instead, Firefox will stretch the table. IE does not do this, it will break words in the middle. (In some cases, the designer specified that text should not wrap at all, even at a space.) Sometimes web page authors include very long URLs (which don't contain spaces for Firefox to insert a line break) or they allow comments and users insert very long words. I have occasionally seen a bookmarklet posted to address this, a snippet of JavaScript you can use to modify the contents of the page

View -> Zoom -> Reset

Or use "CTRL -" (or is it "ALT -" ... I forget, I don't use Windows) That's the "minus" key.
