Extra width in 800x600

Um, this may seem an obvious, but where’s the extra width coming from on my site ? The largest width is 750px, so I’m just wondering why there’s the extra width causing scrolling.

Thanks in advance

In a 800×600 window, the DOM shows a body computed width of 779px. Have you explore each node by hand to see what might affect the body ?

Just for kicks, try changing the title of “Always Outnumbered Never Outgunned” to “Always Outnumbered…” and see if that helps. I bet that it is stretching the page out.

Looking through Opera 8.5 and IE6, your site is exactly 750px wide. Can´t figure out the problem… strange

Try changing #recentlist width to 230 to make up for the 20px margin in #rcntbox.

Edit: and any other divs that force the box to 250.

Actually try 220 to make up for the vertical scroll bar width also.
