i am having a serious issue with ie 7 i really need help. i am using a center layout using 900px the center layout looks and works fine in all browsers except for ie7 i have used a border for the wrapper tag. what i have noticed only in the case of ie7 is the left border for the wrapper tag starts a few pixels 2px or 3px before compared to all other browsers and due to this in ie7 the right border ends a few pixels when compared to all other browsers. so if i can fix the left border the right border for the wrapper tag will adjust automatically. i am using a valid xhtml transitional document. following is my code. ------------------------------- <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>Background image</title> <style type="text/css"> body { text-align: center; margin: 0; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10px; } #wrapper { width: 900px; text-align: left; margin: 0 auto; border: 1px solid #ffff00; } p{ margin: 0; padding: 0; } </style> </head> <body> <div id="wrapper"> <p>Content </p> </div></body></html> ------------------------------- can someone please tell me what the issue is and what the code should be. i would highly appreciate any help as this is an issue in ie7 and not in other browsers. thanks.
Do keep in mind that IE provides a vertical scrollbar even when it's not needed. That will move everything left a bit. You can't get rid of IE's scrollbar, but you can force other browsers to add one. Do html{height:100.5%;}. cheers, gary
