Add margins to wide pages.
Narrower is a simple extension for dealing with annoyingly wide websites.
Usage:
To add margins to a wide page, click on the extension icon and drag the slider.
To return the page to it's previous state, either drag the margin slider to 0%, or refresh the page.
How it works:
When you drag the margin slider, Narrower changes the padding value of `document.documentElement`. It then leaves the selected margin in a cookie, so it can be recalled the next time you activate the extension on the site.
Known issues:
Changing the padding of the document element doesn't work on 100% of the pages. If a page doesn't become narrower as a result of using the extension, you can always resort to manually changing the browser window size.

Excellent extension. I convert ebooks to html and read them in the browser. This extension makes it easy to adjust the margins. Simple. 5 stars. |

Edit: It would be nice if it could be set to a persistent mode and/or map to a keyboard shortcut, so you don't have to keep clicking it every time you click a link. |

Oh thank you, so many pages are stretched the hell out making articles hell to read, this saves so much eye strain. 3 I say Combine this one with darken text, zoon text only and your set to read :D Everyone has a wise monitor nowadays (except on mobile) so why are they still allowing the code to span the width of the screen? Quit it! A simple css edit is all it takes but noooo... |
