Not sure what i've just done to my homepage but now if you have view in a low resolution my page has a horizontal scrollbar. Wasn't like this last week but i tried to clean up some code for validation purposed and must have lost it then.
Does anyone know what it could be? I didn't notice until a customer called as i have a big screen and can fit alot onto my screen

Hi,

Having a very quick peek at the code, I did notice this

<col width="1536"/>
</colgroup>

Which I think is far to wide, and is pushing everything over. (try changing to 99%)

Yep, just tried myself, but I can see a lot of tables on the large side - it could do with quite a lot of cleaning up tbh, and if possible shifting to CSS.

yes that is my aim.
Do you think it will take long to go the css route or is it pretty easy to convert?

Yep, I think it will take a while - but I don't class myself a Web Designer so someone who does this day in day out might be able to knock it up quicker.

Yep, that will definately take a while to do, converting it all to CSS.

What was the resolution you was having the trouble with?

Its anything lower than 1280 by 720

It should really be coded for 1024 by 768 as a minimum. You can then code it to be dynamic percentage of the resolution from there, which will cater to those who use a higher screen resolution.
