    I noticed a couple of bugs :

    I have come across two issue on Freesteading.

    1) Regarding the left side menu. When the text is enlarged so that a visually impaired individual can easily read the words, menu items below the My Profile link are not accessible. You can resolve this by enabling vertical scrollbars for that container.

    2) When clicking on a notification link to read the post responding to you, the link does not take you to the actual message that was posted. This requires a lot of scrolling and there is a point where the person seeking to read the response will not be able to find it.

    Upon searching the page source, I noted two things.

    1) that the link itself appears to be valid.

    2) That the page is missing an anchor tag before the message with the post number as follows in the id.

    Insure that you do not place a # or other special character within the id of the anchor tag like the following:

    Placing a hash tag within the IDE as illustrated above will definitely cause the anchor and link to fail.

      If you are on a PC with Windows, hold the CTRL key down while you scroll the mouse-wheel -OR- hold down the ctrl key while you tap the “+” or “-“.

      To quickly get back to normal size, hold the CTRL key while you tap the 0 (zero) key.

      Hold down the Ctrl key and either push the + sign or roll the wheel on your mouse to change font sizes. You can also look in the menu i most browsers and look around the middle to 2/3rds down and you can find Zoom.
