I couldn't get the IP.Board "No. characters to word wrap on?" setting to work for me with Firefox 2. Some posts on this forum were still stretching my fixed width template. It looked really bad. However this does not seem to be an issue with IE7, Opera, or Safari on Windows.
SMF creates a horizontal scrollbar for a post that is too wide. If you want IP.Board to treat wide posts like SMF does try this. These instructions are for the IP.Pro skin... FIND in the skin's stylesheet: CODE .postcolor{ font-size: 13px; line-height: 160%; } ADD BELOW: CODE div.postcolor{ overflow: auto } Or you can simply add the code to the bottom of the stylesheet if you prefer. I posted an example of the effect below using an actual post from this forum that was causing issues... --------------------

This post should have a horizontal scrollbar in Firefox 2 to prevent the template from stretching...
