Hi all, I'm having trouble with a website I've done. http://www.theafricanbiscuitcompany.co.ukThe navigation buttons go miles to the right outside the wrapper for some reason on IE7 + 6. I thought it was just IE 6, so wasn't going to do anything about it, but it's doing it in 7 as well! Grrr.

Hmmmm I rather like that and the code quality is very good. I can't spot anything obvious try dropping into quirks mode. http://www.quirksmode.org/ It may help.

Thanks to your other thread, I think I may have found the answer.

I couldn't get to the bottom of it, nor could I be bothered to, so I've fixed it using conditional comments and a different css for IE.

In Safari 4 on Snow Leopard it's making the page a lot wider to the right hand side than it seemingly needs to be.

Interesting, doesn't do that on Safari 4 on Tiger. Ah well, can't have everything, I suppose!

It could be in part because I'm using Safari 5  It's not significant, just thought I'd mention it.

Same here for me on Chrome Mac (both latest versions). Computed style for the <html></html> element is 1546px. I've not had a play, and looking at the code there's nothing immediately obvious that would cause the problem. One thing I can think of trying is to remove a few of the fixed width settings. If you have #wrapper fixed at 800px, then the elements below it such as #homeheader, .header, and .maincontent also being fixed at 800px could be whats making Safari and Chrome think the layout is almost double the intended width. _________________

Interesting, doesn't seem to be the case for Google Chrome on Windows and Ubuntu…
