How shall we handle wide forum content. The situation needs to be handled somehow because it breaks the page layout.

_1 Don't care

_2 Use JavaScript to detect wide content and correct page width.

_3 Keep the page width and offer scroll bars for wide content. No JS needed.

I'm tempted to say (1) because it's a fairly rare issue. Definitely not (2). How does (3) work, Urs?

For scrolling content within a div you need fixed width containers. moodle2 has a dynamic width - here scrolling becomes tricky. So we don't change the actual look.

Ciao Urs
I don't know if I well understand you but.... as far as I know...
for scrolling content within a div you DO NOT need fixed width container.
Attached is an example with width:50%.
Sorry if I an out of topic.
