When the:
Our Approach--->The Solution
submenu is expanded, a horizontal scrollbar is unnecessarily (IMO) required in
NN 4.6 Mac
IE 5.0 Mac
IE 5.5 Win
All displays were maximized (full page) with default browser settings
for fonts, etc.
The problem appears to be a table width=555 in the main content
frame. The navbar frame takes 246... a total of 801 before any
allowance for a vertical scrollbar of 16 pixels.
I don't mean to nitpick, but small details such as this can make the
difference between a pleasant user experience and one of
frustration... maybe resulting in lost sales or a diminished
confidence in the capability of the organization that causes/allows
this to occur.
