way to view journal and only journal (problem for tablet users)

if you are using a computer, this isnt a problem because there is plenty of screen space. if youre using a tablet like an ipad, sometimes the journals are all jacked up because of the crap DA puts on the sides of the journal page (especially that "more like this" obnoxious box). the formatting is all messed up! i am experiencing this with my new skin. when i look at it in ipad the boxes overlap and are a mess yet are fine on computer

but heres the thing. i went into "edit journal" and hit the preview. the journal is displayed perfectly. the preview excludes DA's side bar junk and the css works the way its supposed to since the journal isnt cut off. so i know it can display it just needs the room. it would be great to have just a simple button to let ipad users see the journals correctly without the DA side stuff. either a button to temporarily get rid of DA side stuff or let the page be able to scroll sideways so that the full journal can be viewed. would that be so hard to do?

if theres a way to do this already please let me know. so far i cant find any option like this. i dont mind loading up my computer and using that but it would be nice to stay on tablet. i imagine those notebook small laptops would have problems like this too.

Having some kind of fullscreen mode for journal would be nice =)
Some of the news are in this mode, I guess it comes from CSS, but a little button to choose would be nice improvement ^^

i dont think it would be too hard for them to do either.

Have you tried turning off the mobile interface? (Providing the version of DA is in mobile format on a tablet)

i dont know how to turn of DA mobile but i dont think my tablet is using it :O. i dont see any sort of button to switch between modes and it doesnt look different than on the computer.

You gotta scroll right down to the bottom of the page to the darker green footer. There should be a link button that says disable mobile interface there if you got the interface enabled. With the interface turned off you should be able to scroll so that you can see everything on the screen properly.
