[css-d] ie8 bug? The container div is inexplicably jumping around. Please help!

2009-04-14 Thread Noah Learner
Hi all,

Is this an ie8 bug?  I have stared at this so long that I know I am missing
something stupid.  The site is at: http://gti.websitewelcome.com/~wwwbloc/ when
you click on one of the other navigation links to :
http://gti.websitewelcome.com/~wwwbloc/index.php?id=47 or
http://gti.websitewelcome.com/~wwwbloc/index.php?id=50 the main container or
wrapping div shifts over 8 pixels.  I don't understand.  It reminds me of
the double margin bug from ie6.

What is the fix?

Many Thanks,

Noah

No, it is intentional. The vertical scrollbar is removed when pages are
shorter than the browser-window, making the available window wider.
Auto-centering (in your stylesheet) then makes pages jump half the
scrollbar-width left or right depending on how tall they are.

Same happens in most, if not all, non-IE browsers, while IE7 and older
keep the scrollbar in place also when there's no need for it.

Nothing to fix IMO, but you can of course make the page artificially
100% + 1px tall (or something), or control the overflow - on the html
element.

regards
Georg
