Horizontal Scroll bar issue

Hi, I have developed a web site for our company which uses frames.

The main content displays within the main frame. The content page is created
using tables which use the 100% width value.

Problem:

Only in Internet Explorer, I have found not matter how much I edit the code
by removing the % values and change them to fixed pixel values I still get a
HORIZONTAL scroll and the content is slightly shifted to the right.

Problem does not happen in:

Firefox
Netscape etc.

I have spoken to many experts in the field who are baffled! any help
appreciated.

Thanks Don for the pointer.

I ended up re-desiging the entire site using a single page layout rather
than frames after getting the go ahead from our ecommerce guys.

Thanks for your reply, it gives me an insight as to what to expect if I ever
design frame based layouts in the future.

Hi,
It's an IE6 issue. see:

The first article
http://www.macromedia.com/devnet/mx/dreamweaver/articles/horizontal_scroll.html
explains it well and gives workarounds.
