Thanks, I can understand that case as I've seen the scroll bars ripple down before. The only part about this that feels like a bug is how no matter how wide you make the outer container, it's always just a little bit too small to fit its contents. Any help is greatly appreciated...my current hack of disabling horizontal scrolling and adding padding is far from elegant.
