I have designed a hobby website in Dreamweaver CS4 based on a CSS stylesheet. The pages displayed fine under old versions of Firefox. I upgraded to v4, and text wrap aound has been lost and the page is too big for my browser to see in entirity, so images do not appear centre aligned because of space 'hidden' to the right of my display. Any ideas why this has happened suddenly? Home page for site is still OK however.

Looks fine here.

Reset the page zoom on pages that cause problems: View > Zoom > Reset (Ctrl+0 (zero); Cmd+0 on Mac)

Thanks - I think I've solved the problem. For some reason the CSS stylesheet I used had a 'table width' of 129% - I changed this to 100% and the page now fits on screen with the text wrapping round. It's odd that the old versions of Firefox seemed to automatically fit the page to the screen despite this table width, and that I needed to perform this modification only for version 4.
