Firefox is compacting a Java applet into a smaller version

I have had this issue on a few websites. Basically I managed to manipulate the website's Java applet in some way that instead of appearing full sized, it has shrunk to a compacted size and forces me to have to scroll across to see either side. I once somehow fixed one of the sites by randomly clicking and dragging out of frustration, but I can't seem to repeat the act.

Does anyone have any idea what I'm talking about?
