A customer sent in a very gracious critique of our setup wizard and described his pain in trying to complete it:

[customer's email]

I've just purchased a Squeezebox Classic and I want to thank you for creating and supporting such a wonderful product.  It is a joy to use it.

I do have one suggestion which should help other new users of your SqueezeCenter software (a screenshot JPG is attached to this email):

I use a relatively high resolution on my computer monitor (1920 x 1200) and during the sign-in process I got stuck for 5 minutes before I figured out how to get around the problem.

After filling out the email address and password I could not continue - there was no button to click on to proceed.  After trying just about everything during this frustrating process I finally realized that the NEXT button is all the way on the far-right-bottom of the screen.

Because of my high resolution it was not obvious in any way that I need to look at that part of the screen for that button.

I hope you can change this to help future users who confront this issue.

Yes, this is one reason why forms and auto-stretch behavior and/or frames don't go together well.

The page was intended to be designed without the auto-stretch container.  I'm guessing we'll resolve this for 8.0.

Fixed for 7.4, setup won't be browser-based
