Hi, a page with a form on it seems to shift slightly to the left in firefox but not in ie. <http://www.goldenumber.co.uk/john_carter/contact.html> if you click between home and contact you will see what I mean. Any ideas? Some of the other pages shift slightly as well.
Many thanks, Matt.

The contact form is inside a div with the class "dsR245" assigned. The CSS for that class sets the div at 500 pixels. Could that be what's pushing things over?

Thanks for that. I have converted the pages to use the layout grid and that seems to work. I have one more question which I will post in a separate thread, but... Is there a way when I am viewing the site to force it to display in a particular font. i.e. I have made a font family headed by Franklin Gothic Demi but would like to know what it looks like for visitors who don't have that font.
Thanks again, Matt.

The easiest way that comes to mind is to disable the font in your system temporarily. Don't know if there are browser plug-ins to accomplish the same (seems likely).

I'm a little late to this party, but try adding this rule to your CSS -

:root { overflow-y:scroll; }

The shift is caused by the length of the page causing a vertical scrollbar to drop. This CSS will force all pages to reserve space on the right for that scrollbar.
