IE6 making area bigger than I want

IE6 is extending the area giving a horizontal scrollbar when not wanted

Hi guys -

I am having a problem with IE, where from time to time, the body is being extended right, and users are seeing a horizontal scrollbar.

This only occurs with certain content, and works fine with other browsers (Mozilla etc).

If anyone has any good ideas, I would be forever thankful :)

<Eeek!>

Cheers,

Dion

Hi there, welcome to WebmasterWorld!

If it works in Moz, I'll bet it works in Opera too right? - IE is notorious for mucking up good CSS ;)

Maybe you could post some Trimmed down code [webmasterworld.com]?

Watch out for divs extending past the edge of the page. They don't have to be filled with content to push the page out if their width is set too wide.
