Mystery gap 1

[dmacster]

We're redoing the site at work, and one of the pages - the contact page - has a large gap on the left - kind of small when seen with Safari - but huge when viewed with Firefox.

Here's the link:

Now, the contact page uses the same overall format of the home page - just without a photo. If I leave a photo in, I'm fine - but we don't want that here.

I think I'm getting punchy, but can someone see what I've done wrong?

Thanks,
Donna

I was too hasty - setting the width of the maincol to 100% fixed it.

My Guess Donna is that its to do with the width setting on your #maincol div ... when the image is placed on the page its obviously stretching the div out to fill its space, but when its removed it isnt stretched.

I'm away from my FTP at the moment so cant test anything for you, but try ammending the width:; attribute in your css. set it to 780px as below, its then the same width as when the image is in place.

Thanks,

Rob

#maincol{
	background-color: #FFFFFF;
	float: right;
	display:inline;
	position: relative;
 	width:780px; 
	font-family: "Trebuchet MS", Verdana, Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif;
	font-size: .85em;
	color: #333333;
}

Hope that helps,

Rob
