  1. Awesome, that is a much more elegant solution. Thanks! I messed around with it a bit today, keeping in mind what you said about width:100%, and got it to a much better state, I think. The shop page works fine because I could make sure that no element could extend beyond the window boundary, but the problem is still happening on the main site (http://ghoste.net) It happens when the window width is narrower than the content, it seems. With the window maximized, it's fine. But when an image extends off the side and a horizontal scrollbar appears, the header image and all the black post-title bars fall short of the edge. On an ipad the issue is always visible: http://i.imgur.com/wCQvq.png I don't understand why those elements won't fill in the entire width. Any thoughts? The HTML for the homepage:

  2. Thanks dsonesuk. Your advice helped quite a bit, I think. The problem persists, but it's consistent, now. The black bars have the same amount of space on the right as the header, which is more than I could manage alone. However, deleting the display:table/cell parts only made it so the headline text wasn't vertically centered. I did that to just the first "print shop" headline to illustrate: http://shop.ghoste.net/shopNew3.php Here's the full css-

    @charset "UTF-8";/* CSS Document */html {    margin:0;    padding:0;}body {    margin: 0;    padding: 0;    }.header {    height: 217px;      border:0;    margin:0;    background-image: url('images/header.png');    background-repeat:no-repeat;    background-color:#33fce2;    background-position:center;}.title {    border-left: 26px solid transparent;    border-bottom: 26px solid #000000;    color:#33fce2;    font-size:12pt;    text-decoration: none;    height: 0;    margin-bottom:30px;}.text {margin-bottom:30px;max-width:700px;margin-right:100px;margin-left:32px;color:#000000;font-size:9pt;}#content {height:100%;margin-left:212px;margin-bottom:30px;}.thumb {width:180px;margin-right:20px;margin-bottom:20px;float:left;}.thumbContainer {margin-left:32px;margin-bottom:30px;width:100%;float:left;}.ribbon {margin-bottom:10px;margin-top:20px;}.link {margin-left:17px;;margin-bottom:20px;width:98px;}.desc {margin-left:17px;margin-bottom:17px;width:140px;}.sidebar {float:left;width: 212px;height: 100%;}A { color: #ff64ad; text-decoration: none; }A:link {    color: #ff64ad;    padding: 0;    text-decoration: none;}A:visited {    color: #ff64ad;    text-decoration: none;}A:active {    color: #ff64ad;}A:hover {    color: #000000;}img {border:0;}BODY,TD,TR{    font-family: verdana, arial, sans-serif;    color:#000000;    font-size:10px;    font-weight:normal;}

    Niche, I could do that, but I feel like this isn't a problem that can't be solved. Not that it's a great design or anything, but I'd rather try to get it working properly than compromise it.

  3. Seems like a fairly common topic, but no solutions have worked so far. My art portfolio site is set up with a header image, navigation on the left under that, then the content separated by big black divs. I'll use my shop subdomain as the example (some NSFW images, but thumbnailed): http://shop.ghoste.net/shopNew.php The problem is that space is being created on the right side, causing a horizontal scrollbar. I've tried overflow:hidden, and that's fine as a bandaid, but still looks awful on mobile devices/smaller displays. On my homepage I have larger images that might not fit on a smaller screen, so I want there to be a scrollbar if there's a legit need for it. The best I can figure is it's caused by the black dividers, cuz if I don't use them, everything's fine: http://shop.ghoste.net/ Here's my code for the dividers- .title { display:block; float:left; border-left: 26px solid transparent; border-bottom: 26px solid #000000; color:#33fce2; font-size:12pt; text-decoration: none; height: 0; width: 100%; margin-bottom:30px;} and the HTML- <div class="title"><div style="width:100%; height:26px;display: table; #position: relative;"><div style="#position: absolute; #top: 50%; display: table-cell; vertical-align: middle; font-family:Verdana, Helvetica, Arial; font-size:12pt; white-space: nowrap;">"Bodies in Space" Series Giclee Prints</div></div></div> (At the moment I also use a different code for the same angled edge effect for the dividers on other sections of the site- <div style= "margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:30px;"><div style="position:absolute; width: 32px; height: 26px; float:left; background-position:left; background-image:url('http://ghoste.net/images/nav/edge.png'); background-repeat:no-repeat;"></div><div style="width:100%; margin-left:32px; height:26px; background-color:#000000;display: table; #position: relative;"><div style="#position: absolute; #top: 50%; display: table-cell; vertical-align: middle; font-family:Verdana, Helvetica, Arial; color:#33fce2; font-size:12pt; white-space: nowrap;">{title}</div></div> Both methods cause the same problem.) The whole display:table-cell business is to vertically center the text. If there's a better method, I'm listening, but that's the only thing I could get to work. I've attached the full code to this post. Try not to laugh too hard; I'm very much a novice at this and I'm sure there are tons of unnecessary things in there. I'd really appreciate any suggestions! style2.cssshopNew.php
