Finally got around to fixing the horizontal scrolling bug Alan was bitching about.... It's a difference between how different browsers handle the width element. IE sees width as being the width of the container element (if it's in the <body>, then it's 100% of the body width... if it's in a sized <div>, it's 100% of the sized <div>), whereas Mozilla appears to view it as 100% of the <body> width. One of the <div>s I had created had a padding of 10px, so it was sizing the div to 100% of the body, and then adding the padding on for some reason, making the page wider than it was supposed to be. I removed the width statement, and replaced it with right: 0px;, which extends the element (in most browsers) to the far right of the browser window.
