This site I've been working on is nearly finished...and there is just 1 pixel that is just killing me.

Visit this page in IE (IE 7) and take a look at the Testimonial section...to the left of it, you can see a 1 pixel offset in IE.

I can't, if my life depended on it, figure out what the heck is wrong!
I tried...and tried...

Please help.

Hey,

Sorry this isn't a solution to your problem it is just a suggestion. When visiting your site it took quite a long time to load do to the large amounts of Javascript and CSS. I recommend you gzip these, it will make the page load noticeably faster and save you dramatic amounts of bandwidth.

If you have the php zlib extension installed (which most php set-ups do) you can use this system below.

It can also merge you files so your 50 CSS can be loaded as 1 file saving you quite a bit of loading time.

Sorry I couldn't assist with your other issue.

You may have to take a screenshot image and point-out the 1-pixel problem. I do not see it anywhere.

I do note though:<table class="scroll_bg_color" border=0px width=100% cellspacing=0px cellpadding=0px>

"px" is only used on CSS, either external, embedded or inline. Here, you are using it in HTML.
While "zero" = "zero" this although invalid, is almost moot.
The use of "px" here in "inline style" CSS throws warning errors. There are two TABLEs with this.

Have a look at your padding + margins. IE handles padding and margins differently to Safari and Firefox. Safari + Firefox will add the padding onto the overall size where as IE general won't. Also in IE6 it seems more messed up than that...

Yes, I've looked at all of those...and still I get nothing!

And I realized in IE 6 it is probably more messed up than that...
I've just stopped supporting IE6...
isn't that piece of cr@p dead and berried already?
:)

Thank you for the heads-up, though...
anyone else?
