BBC Homepage looks very different and some BBC pages look "scrambled".

    Mark,
    Yes, exactly the same here on two different computers and also tested using Windows 10 Sandbox.
    I first noticed it about a couple of weeks ago. The problem only occurs at my default zoom setting of 150%. If I change for example to 125% or 175% the page displays correctly. Very odd.
    Not a problem really. I just use Chrome instead 🙂 Does changing the zoom setting have the same effect with you?

    That's it Alan - you're a superstar!
    I would never have thought of that. If I zoom to 110% or 125%, all the problems are solved. I'll leave it at 110% for now. The good thing is that the zoom only affects that tab.
    I switched to firefox and all was normal - not sure whether to keep it or edge. I'll probably keep both, just in case something happens like this in the future.

     

    The default setting of 100% still has the issue in Edge for BBC.

    Thanks again and best wishes
    Mark.
