Good morning Gunlaug,
It was foretold that on 24/10/2008 @ 06:35:22 GMT+0200 (which was
02:35:22 where I live) Gunlaug Sørtun would write:

When trying to correct it myself yesterday, i indeed used the
'width:auto' but ofcourse forgot about the margin-left.
Works like a charm!!

Darn, i recalculated all my widths yesterday except for the
expression. Never thought that would be culprit. On the
hand it's the first time i used that technique so i hope i'll be
forgiven ;-)
Guess i need to read your excellent article again :-)

Oh well, for me it suffices ... i guess if we want to consider all
possible screen resolutions out there and users that change default
font size etc.... we'll be in the magic business :-)
