Vertical scrolling is displayed correctly

Hi Esahc,
Re the above the initial post was raised by myself, however Stefano G. at Incomedia has set the post to private for some reason. He has asked that I send him the iwzip file of the project via wetransfer which I have done, so now waiting on further feedback from Incomedia.

Jim - Stefano will have done that so all and sundry don't download a copy of your site :-)
I assume your version is still far more erratic that mine (from memory yours displays far fewer characters), hopefully you will find out why. I'll leave my post up just in case anyone else is having a problem with horizontal scrolling text.
