Something to vent over
Why is it that so many MT-based blogs have a stupid pop-up comments box that is not resizable?
It's bad enough when one is reading a blog with dozens of comments, which requires continual scrolling, but it's far worse when a commenter leaves a naked URL which breaks the comment function, causing the whole thread to be wider than the box, which means scrolling from side-to-side as well as up-and-down.
One well-known blog (I won't mention the name, but it is on my sidebar), is even worse, because clicking on the "open in new window" option causes a javascript "Page cannot be displayed" error.
MT *does* give the option of changing the comments pop-up box to something other than the rather narrow default, and it also allows people to resize the box to full-screen or whatever size is desired, IF YOU LET THEM. Please, if you run a MT blog, allow the comments box to be resized. Thank you.
