Hi there,

we are almost finished with this page:
http://www.deutschland.se. There is always something to improve ;).

Just tomorrow I saw another problem occuring. If you have a look at the front page of the blog, the bottom frame (which is the content) is too wide. There appears a scrollbar at the bottom, which shouldn't be there, of course. This scrollbar appeared (as I remember) after including the content about "Turistmässan" (the first four articles).

Does anybody know how I can get rid of this scrollbar, respectively what the reason is for it to appear?

Thank you very much for your help
Stefan

Nice look and slick, I like it!

About your problem, this seems only to be caused in MS IE. Firefox doesn'T show it.

That might be a bit harder to debug - if the error happened in Firefox, you could use cool extensions like EditCSS+Aardvark+MODI v2 to fix the CSS instantly.

I think it might have to do with some width: property of the page...

Hi Garvin,

thanks for your hint and I'm glad you like it :). I haven't been checking it with other browsers actually, since over 80% of our users are using MS IE (unfortunately) ;). But do you really think it is a CSS-problem?
Because it has happened only due to addition of these four new articles. It hasn't been there before. I checked the CSS-code but couldn't find so far any statement which could be the reason for that.

I assume the failure could also be found in the template-files perhaps or don't you think that? Or why do you think it's the CSS-code?

tack & hälsningar
Stefan

P.S.: in case you didn't notice we finally fixed the problems which we had earlier: showing articles upside down; and we realised that only future-articles are shown based on the current date/day

finally found the solution

Hi there,

I finally found the solution to this problem. And as always, it's very odd:
it's the source of the frame-page which was wrong. In the attribute terms of the header-frame I had " scrolling='no' " and in the content-frame there was no attribute about scrolling at all. That was the mistake. There should be written " scrolling='yes' ".
That's the way it works with MS IE also. Whatever the reason might be...

best regards
Stefan
