Just noticed this:

Whenever I read a thread, there's whitespace on the right. It's only in threads and I have no idea why. Is it my Firefox or Sepia or the whole site?

Oh, sorry, I was on my phone earlier and didn't see which margins you were talking about.

Will have to dig into it more once I get my computer reinstalled.

The problem isn't Sepia - I'm getting the same margins on mafSilver in FF12 on Snow Leopard.
It might be Firefox, though - when I open Camino 2.1.2 or Safari 5.1.7 on the same machine, I don't get the margins.

Update: On my laptop, which has Lion, FF still gives weird margins and the other two still work fine.

Odd - FF 12.0 on Linux doesn't do it.

Took me a moment to realize this, but I'd look to make sure you don't have a scroll bar at the bottom. The content is still the proper width it just has the extra margin space. Don't know whats generating it yet.

Nothing obvious wrong in the CSS - I suspect a rendering bug is getting confused and stacking margins, based on playing with Inspect Element for a while.

::edit::

Code: Select all

margin: 0 auto;  /**this is centered**/
on the wrap div might solve it, but I've got to go to work now.
