    I've been searching for this problem but the search produced a lot of results that didn't fit my problem.
    Firstly, this is the site I'm currently working on: here.

    There is a superfluous horizontal scroll bar showing in firefox (and something similar in safari) at the bottom. I've been told it's not visible in IE but I can't check for myself. As far as I can tell there is no reason whatsoever for this bar to appear yet it does. Does anyone know how I can tweak this?

    Here's how it looks in safari: safari

    Here's how it looks in firefox: firefox

    Help is greatly appreciated!

    You have some validation errors - including a missing </div> - that may be causing the problem.

    Thanks a lot for your reply! I'm not capable to find the exact place of the missing </div> though.
    There are so many .php files in which the error could be. Do you know more?

    in style.css of the theme:

    body {
    	font-size: 62.5%; /*Set font size so 1em = 10px*/
    	background: #333;
    	color: #333;
    	margin: 20px 0;
    	text-align: center; /*Center site on page in IE*/
    	font-family: verdana, Helvetica, tahoma, serif;
            overflow: scroll
    }

    try and delete 'overflow:scroll'

    Merci! That worked.
    Now I just gotta see whether the IE rendering is mucked up all over again because that was because I had originally included it there.
    Thanks again.

    (I'll put it to resolved when everything's clear.)
