New links open minimised in IE7 using Vista.


Hi

Not sure what i have done but whenever i click a link to open in a new
page the new page is very small, 1 inch high, 8 inch across. Normally
the new page is 8 x 6ins.

Like is have said i am not sure what i have clicked but i remember all
of a sudden the page closing upwards to become 1 inch high.

What have i done and how do i correct it.

Any help gratefully recieved as it is driving me crazy!!

Thanks

Clare

Re: New links open minimised in IE7 using Vista.

Hi,
Open a webpage. Stretch it out to fullsize. Don't use maximize.
Choose any link on that webpage and right-click> open in a new window.
Stretch that second window out to the desired size- don't use maximize.
Close the first IE window. Then close that second resized window.

To always get a true maximized window...
