Layout shifts and moves from page to page.

Anyone had problems with their layout shifting and moving from page to page? I have seen it on many other sites, is there a way to fix this problem? It seems like the entire layout shifts about 10 pix and then shifts back on other pages, can't figure out why.

Use IE... and it's OK

Or take a left aligned layout... then your page is like a ROCK! In all browsers

Use IE? That is the worst browser known to man!

So, are you telling me there is no way around this if I want to have a centered layout?

Ok, I figured it out. So it is when the page needs to add a verticle scroll bar that there is a shift. This is a real bummer, as I would rather use Safari or Firefox than IE.

I would say... its a BUG in FF and Safari

But... if you have a solution... give it to the community. There are many uses waiting on it

I've just added enought vertical heigt to all my pages (even the ones with little content) so that the scroll bars always appear.

Hi friends,

i've tried out nnhubbards solution... and have to say: PERFECT!

html { min-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 1px; }

Only one line inside the frontend.css and there is my permanent vertical scrollbar using FF

And no more horizontal jumping of my window, when changin between long and short pages...
