[Pro] Identical Pages, Some Shift

I’m working on a site that has six identical pages, yet, when previewed in a browser or when uploaded, two pages seem to shift to the left slightly. They are all set to center.

Any idea what would cause this? I’ve checked all the settings in Freeway and can’t see any differences.

Thanks.

I’ll bet that the two that shift are long enough to cause a scrollbar to appear, which shifts content across to the left.

Nope. No scroll bars show up.

The second and last links are the ones that shift.

What are the benefits? - is the problem page for me.

At a screen res of 2560 x 1440 I am getting a scrollbar which means that either your page is taller than that or there is something down there somewhere.

Have a look at the site panel set to page view.

Can you identify all the items in the list.

I tried that, but I’ll look again.

The second link does t for me, too, but I never see any scrollbars.

There is also this

<div id="PageDiv" style="position:relative; min-height:100%; margin:auto; width:960px"> 
	<table border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 width=961> 

You will see that the page div is 960 wide but the table is 961 - that could be doing it. Look in the inspector with the table selected and change its width to 960 or less.

This may be that there is something that is not positioned within the 960 page boundaries and FW has generated the enclosing table at 961 rather than a table you created.

Have a look with View>HTML Layout checked.

I can’t see anything out of the ordinary. I don’t even see the 961 you see, Dave.

When I View Source in Firefox it says 960.

In FF

</head>
<body class="bulletlist3">
<div id="PageDiv" style="position:relative; min-height:100%; margin:auto; width:960px">
	<table border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 width=961>

Here’s what I see:

I don’t know how to style code in the forum.

In Safari, only the Benefits page shifts, In FF, How does it work and Benefits shifts.

Weird…

The code I am talking about is for - What are the benefits?

Try this - and I am assuming that you have based your pages on a Master. Change the page width to 966 on the Master - or the individual pages if you don’t have a Master

For me in FF only the Benefits page shifts

OK. This makes no sense to me, but I had a Space After on my bulletlist3 style (which I realized today does nothing!) So, I took that off and it seems OK.

I’ll upload it again.

Give me five minutes and check it again.

Thanks.

That’s done the trick!

Even OK in IE8

I didn’t do much Bob - you found the problem yourself - well done.

It might be worth sending the file to Softpress in case it is a bug.

Interestingly the code now reads

<div id="PageDiv" style="position:relative; min-height:100%; margin:auto; width:960px">
	<table border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 width=886>

OK. The only thing I “fixed” was taking the Space After off a bullet text style.

That is odd about the width. I’m not even changing any widths.
