Page Width: Right Column on Main Page

Hi all,

 

I'm working on my shopping cart and have added images to the infoboxes in the left and right columns.

 

When I'd only added the images in the left column, I could see the full page within my 800x600 resolution. After adding images with a 144 pixel width in the right column, however, I now have to scroll a bit horizontally to see the full screen. This only happens on the main page, though -- the columns are displaying correctly, without any need to scroll, on every other page I've checked!

 

I've looked through the table code on all of the pages I can think of to try and figure out why it's nudging just on the main page, but none of the ones I've tried to change have had any impact. I've done a side-by-side comparison of the source HTML on both pages, but don't see anything different.

 

Here's my ( very much a work-in-progress! ) site. See how the right nav juts on the main page, but click on, say, the 'What's New' product, and it displays right:

Thanks in advance for any help!

the only difference that I could find between the index page and another page was one reference to cellpadding="5" this may be just enough to force the page that bit wider.

 

It is as you say only on 800 x 600 and only on the index page

try changing to a lower value and see if that brings things in.

You are brilliant! That's exactly where the problem was.

 

Perhaps now I can retain what little hair I have left on my head after pulling most of it out today! Thank you sooooooo much!! :)
