I have no idea how I accomplished this, but somehow I have made my blog very very wide. If you look at it you can see http://www.trutek.com/serendipity

Is there anything I can do to restore the width to normal?

What seems to be the problem?

You are using the template Serendipity 3.0, which is the default template prior to serendipity 1.4.

The overall page width is defined here:

Code: Select all
/* wrapper for page */
#wrap {
   width:90%;
   margin:0 auto; }


So the actual width will be determined by the browser viewport width.

It's not larger than it should be when I visit the page.
If I see this correctly, it is a table-based-layout. Tables tend to get as wide as necessary to display it's content. Maybe you added a large image or a table or a <pre> or a line that can't be breaked (aaaaa... without space) to an entry that the table tries to display by getting larger than usual (at small resolutions)?

Solution for that would be to shrink that wide element or to use a div-based layout.
sincerely
