    I got a new monitor, went from 1024x768, to 1680x1050. Now the borders around ff are two small. How do I make them bigger?
    In ie it's pretty easy. Looked all around and can't find it in ff. Thank you,
    Chris.

    Hi Chris,

    You don't say what OS you're using, and I'm guessing that you don't maximize your windows.

    In XP (and, I would think, in other versions of Windows as well) the size of window borders is set in Display properties. Click on the Appearance tab, then on the Advanced button at the bottom of the page. In the Item window select "Active Window Border ", and set your desired width in the adjacent Size window (default in XP is 1).

    Do the same for "Inactive Window Border" and OK your way out.

    Note: This will affect the borders of all of your windows.

    HTH.

    Thank you,
    I forgot it was in Windows, not the browser. I have it all set up. Looks good.
    Chris.
