without a live page to look at, i would guess that you put one of the
following on the same element that you made width 100% (in this case
body):

- right or left margin
- right or left padding
- right or left border

since the box model the w3c decided to go with makes the *content*
part of the element 100%, the margin, padding, and border are all
added *outside* of the 100%, which creates horizontal scrolling.

this page of the wiki has links to pages that give illustrations:

and this one offers some more explanation:
