div.rightbox had a 'position: relative' specified in ../../../style.css.
It also specified a top and left of 0, so essentially the rule was
saying 'lay out this box according to normal flow, then offset it from
its original position by 0px' i.e. don't move it.
It seemed superfluous, so I removed it. Doing so appeared to fix the
problem with no discernible side effects. As for why it isn't affecting
other pages, I have no idea. It's probably, as Stas suggests, a size
thing.
Is that the biggest page on the site?
