IE6 - vertical scroll bar missing

[Sjoerd-Jaap Westra]

Hello,

A particular site tells me item 1-50 are being displayed, but my screen only
contains approx. 30 items. At the bottom of the screen I can see there
should be more (one line is cut by the edge of the screen), but there is no
vertical scroll bar that lets me scroll downwards.

I have IE6 SP2.

Who knows what is wrong?

Thanks
SJ

Hi,
Try:
1. The F11 key for Full Screen mode.
2. Maximize the window if you have it filling the screen but not maximized.
3. Change the resolution. Right-click the desktop> Properties> Settings>
Screen resolution.

Hope this helps,
Don

That is symptomatic of a too large DPI setting.
Check in Display Properties Settings Advanced dialog.

Also, sometimes you can "scroll" pages without a scrollbar
using tricks such as: tabbing to links which are rendered below
the currently showing portion of the page or using AutoScroll
(e.g. pressing Middle button on a mouse.) The latter case
would be an example of more of an error by the page designer
than an issue about Display Properties.

Good luck
