Only on firefox in my yahoo account does the magnification exceed the viewing screen. This is a nuisance. I want to read the screen in one shot not have to keep scrolling right. How do I reduce the magnification on firefox. This does not happen on internet explorer only firefox.

It took more fanagling than just that. I used the keyboard and fidgeted around a bit but eventually that solved the problem. Why isn't there just a tutorial tab on the toolbar for these issues? I have been so frustrated for months when all of a sudden my own zoom button on the computer ONLY in FIREFOX everything was magnified. I have to use FIREFOX for my online classrooms and wonder just how many other students/professors have been so frustrated with such a simple solutioon.
