controls not displayed properly on remote computer

blackbur

I have created an asp.net website that looks fine when I view it from my computer, but when I browse from another computer the controls are overlapping each other in some cases. In other cases the text in tables is wrapping onto itself. I don't understand because everything looks fine when viewed locally. Please help. Thanks, chris.

hi,

are you using any CSS file to format the GUI. if so, check the path of the
CSS. because if you put the link as http://localhost/... in the html tag..
it is correct when you call the page from your local computer. but
http://localhost/... is not defined when view the page from a remote
computer..

else send a descriptive question.

hope this helps,
CMA

Well I figured out what is causing the problem. This is only happening
on remote computers where the DPI Dots Per Inch of the display is set to
"Large size (120 DPI)" instead of "Normal size (96 DPI)". I am not sure
what to do about this. I would like the website to display correctly no
matter what the user has their dpi set to. Does anyone have a solution
to this? Thanks.

To reproduce dpi change:
Right Click on desktop, click properties, click settings, click
"advanced" near the bottom, click on the "general" tab, you should have
a combo box that allows you to change the dpi.

"Allow nulls" in the DataColumn? Yes. No. Allow then in the DataGrid? Yes. No. True...

The easy way to turn off automatic updates for Windows 10/11

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
