Zoom not working right on android

[JollySergeantJackrum]

This has just happened today.

When I go into a thread I normally zoom in so the text is readable. Normally the text then moves so that it is all on my screen and I don't have to scroll sideways to read any of it. Today the text is not moving when I zoom, so if I zoom in too far I have to move sideways to see the end of each line.

Is it just my phone that's broken or has the site changed?

Bump

I second this. It's making talk almost unusable on my HTC desire. Text used to resize to fit screen as you zoomed in and out, now it doesn't.

Phew, it's not just me!

P.S. other sites are working fine, so it's not the version. I'm running Android 2.2, with browser Webkit 3.1.

yes, happens on my phone too (htc desire, android 2.2)

been happening for a few days now - maybe since the weekend?

I have an HTC desire too. No idea what spec though :/

Maybe it was since the weekend, thinking about it I probably haven't been on MN for a couple of days, but I just noticed it yesterday.

Same happening to me (Android 2.2 on HTC Desire - anyone here not have one?!). I only noticed it two days ago.

Hello - thanks for telling us about this. We'll take a look.

Ah great. Thanks!

Thanks Helen :)

Marking my place. I've never managed to get the site to display in a mobile friendly way....

Is there a mobile option I need to tick to use m'net from my android? Or should my browser automatically display the site in mobile view? I have a samsung galaxy android phone. Thanks.

I was moaning about exactly this on the twitchy text thread.

Also, on the non mobile site, active convos doesn't appear until below the ads - ie a huge tennis court of white space on the LH side of the screen, then active convos at the bottom

I think someone has been fiddling with some knobs & switches.

catinthehat2, no, no fiddling, honest. Was a certain thread title that mucked things up. Should be fine now though.

I have been having the same problem as OP for the last few days. HTC Desire here too. Please let us know if it can be sorted as it is making chat pretty unusable from my phone.

Hm thanks Geraldine.
Make sure it never happens again........

@NotAnotherNewNappy: The mobile site is m.mumsnet.com, currently there is no automatic redirection in place. Most likely there will be a button near the top of the (non-mobile) home page that, if you are using a mobile client, allowing quick access to the mobile site should you wish to use it.

Thanks DamianTech - that's great, except I'll never be off the site now

Hi there. 'Fraid the problem seems to have returned - it was ok until today, but now I'm experiencing horizontal scrolling on recent _chat threads again.

moi aussi

Bump as this is still not working right.
