Another way to handle this is to "force" a scrollbar so that no matter the content, the scroolbar is always there.

It can be done in CSS by doing this:

html {
   height:100%;
   margin-bottom:1px;
}

I agree, and I would like to eliminate the shifting as well.
We'll do some more rearranging to fit the content without getting the scroll bar to appear.

I've put the breadcrumbs on the two sub-level pages, Infusion Demo and Download Infusion. :)

Looking forward to more feedback,

You asked for it...  :-)


On the "About Us" page (at least on my monitor), the "Out Mission" has enough information to require a scroll bar on the page, and "Contact Us" does not. In this case, switching back and forth between these two tabs causes the central block of info to shift to the left and right according to whether or not the scroll bar is present. This is a wee bit disconcerting.

On the "Partners" page, the "Fluid Academic" and "Opencast" tabs have a similar presence/absence of a scrollbar, but the disconcerting shifting doesn't happen.

If you could find out what's different between the styles on the two pages, and modify the "Our Mission" pages to eliminate the shifting, that would be nice.
