I'm not familiar with Trellix...there should be, in the source code, (view-source) a place in the beginning part of the BODY, something like width=####(numbers there) or a percentage (of screen width). Just change the width to something smaller. Since you say you don't know HTML, this may not make sense to you but I had to try. :o)
I learned HTML originally by using Evrsoft's First Page 2000. Do not confuse with Microsoft's Front Page...totally different critters. First Page will allow you to begin with a very basic type of HTML and do most of the work for you if you don't know it. It highlights mistakes so you can correct them etc...then, as you learn, you can progress to the more complete versions within the program with a click on a button/link. You can view your work as you go from within the program.
One caution: after you've installed it using the defaults, go into My Computer - Windows - Evrsoft - First Page - and look for a file called "Buttons From Hell" (sometimes just called buttons) and delete it. Make SURE you are in the Evrsoft First Page file and not elsewhere! It is self-contained and will not affect anything else in the program or otherwise. Buttons From Hell will cause problems on most systems.
Evrsoft has a new version but most folks I know who've tried it have problems with the 2006 version. Not sure what causes it but FYI. If the older version is no longer on their site, it is available lots of other places around so just put 'first page' (just the text) in Google and you'll find it.
Hope this is some help to you.

| PLEASE READ THIS LEGAL NOTICE CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU FILE A LAWSUIT OR EVEN WASTE TIME THINKING ABOUT IT. It has been done before, but never successfully. In fact, the last dodobird who tried it ended up being ordered to pay more than $77,000 in attorney fees ($65,000+ to my attorneys and $12,000+ to my co-defendant's legal advisor).
If your attorney is worth his salt, he's going to tell you that the expense of filing a lawsuit you can't win is a whole lot worse than any "damages" resulting from messages posted on this insignificant little chunk of cyberspace. NEWS FLASH: I didn't just climb down off that ol' turnip truck yesterday. I'm well aware that expressing a negative opinion, relating one's personal experience, and restating provable facts are all legal in this country and do not constitute libel, slander, or defamation -- so you don't want to play games with me, and you sure don't want to start something you aren't prepared to finish. I don't take threats lightly, and I don't accept bribes (or did you call it a "mutually-beneficial arrangement"?). I'll turn you in faster than you can yell, "ARREST ME, I'M SCUM!!" Do yourself a favor and turn your legal team loose in greener pastures.

You are likewise prohibited from posting any false claims against any company or individual. We will fully cooperate with any law enforcement authorities or court order requesting or directing us to disclose the identity of anyone posting any such information or materials.

In closing, I would like to remind you once again that it is still legal, in this great country of ours, to express a PERSONAL OPINION, as long as it is presented as opinion and not as fact. And finally, all you scammers out there will do well to remember that TRUTH IS AN ABSOLUTE DEFENSE against charges of libel, defamation, and slander... so if you're operating just a hop, skip, and jump ahead of the law, you might want to think twice before doing anything stupid... (AND SHAME ON YOU!!). |
