If the pages are not ones you have authored, it is not possible, they
have been authored by someone else, your browser merely shows you what
they wrote.  If they say that it should be 1024 wide then your browser
obeys.  Chances are if they want it that wide, showing it to your in a
more narrow format would make it so ugly you would really hate it.

There are mice around now that have little wheels on them.  I did hear
of one that had a wheel for horizontal scrolling but I haven't seen or
tried it.
