Browser scrolling issue (possibly)

ArthurG

I'm probably doing something stupid here, but I seem to have an issue with sites like boards, when I use the non mobile version.

Basically, when I zoom in, I can't scroll the top part of the page, where the drop down menu options are:



So while I can move the bottom part around no problem, when I try to move the menus to select a different forum or whatever, no joy.

Has anyone else seen this, or am I just doing something stupid?. This is on the S3 by the way, on both stock and Chrome browsers.

Thanks!

Basically Boards touch is terrible,

theyve crippled pinch to zoom so its not actually touch friendly.
Whatever way you are zooming, the site doesnt recomgise it so you cant move around

Thanks for reply. Should have said its not just boards, see it on other forums too.

Mght be handy to lnk to them. Boards issue is not your phone

Sorry should have linked.

If I go to netflix web page (rather than app, yes i know....), and zoom in to select the login button, same thing happens. Basically I cant scroll the top part of the screen to get to the login section. This was more for account info etc, not a killer issue or anything, but a bit annoying.

Yeah, netflix is the same for me. I get the same when sites have a lightbox popup for images or when confirming the delivery country on ebay

This is with Dolphin

the netflix mobile page isnt zoom friendly either.
which device do you have, which browser are you using and how are you zooming in.

I put that info in my opening post, this is on the S3, on both stock and Chrome browsers.

I'm not sure about the sites being 'unfriendly', as I had no problem with Safari on iPhone with the sites mentioned.

sorry, missed that piece, but how are you zooming?
i cant zoom in dolphin, stock browser or even safari on ipad on boards or netflix

i simply cant reproduce the error you are having.

ive installed chrome and its the same, no pinch to zoom

Dude I think you need to read my post. I said I'm using the non mobile site. The mobile version is non zoom able as far a I know.
