I don't know what this says about Microsft, but this little community
discussion application we are using is pretty screwed up.
First, it does not expand horizontally to take advantage of wide screen
resolutions. I have to interact with the subject lines and postings side by
side in a tiny box centered in my giant screen.
Worse than that, if you hover the mouse pointer between the area showing the
discussion subject list and the messages...
<--- this little grey vertical strip over here
....the strip turns yellow, and the pointer turns to a horizontal resizing
pointer, telling me that I can resize the window to so that I can allow more
room to see the full message subjects. But when I go to resize the windows
the entire display collapses. Worthless!
This happens on both my Vista and XP machines using IE7.
Lastly, a small, but annoying aesthetic flaw. The border around the header
of the page stops abruptly and becomes a much thicker border for this content
area. Did the designers just run out of time? I'm embarrassed for them.
