When I use "overflow:auto;" it's creating a horizontal scroll bar!
look at http://slico.ca/design.php
Please help, this is killing me. I am trying to make a footer that will lower or rise as the content/subcategory divs are filled or emptied.
My question is what am I doing wrong? If I am not using proper things, please specify.

Make use of box-sizing CSS property and you don't need all those styles there.
I did not correct your CSS but here is a fixed version
box-sizing:border-box;
this will help treat border as part of width

I have a quite strange CSS problem.
When I link to my page, the headline (Ohne Geschäftsidee...) looks OK: blah.html
But when I append a link to an ID, the top of the headline is cut off: blah.html#comment-2
However, this doesn't happen when I hashlink to the headline itself: blah.html#post-199
Any ideas how I can stop that madness?
Weird indeed. It seems in the problematic case, the #main element overflows its height and since it has an overflow:hidden; CSS declaration, the h1 element is truncated.
Removing the overflow:hidden; declaration from the #main element seems to solve the truncation.

I've got the alignment issue that shows in IE, this is the page:
http://calibredesign.com/clients/spec/index.html?view=http://calibredesign.com/clients/spec/envi_news.html
there's a big gap between the picture and the copy at the first paragraph, Does anybody know how to write css code to minimize the gap?
Thanks for your help!!
The content of your TD elements seems to be floating left when it doesn't need to be. I think that's probably causing the IE issue.
You really shouldn't be using TABLE elments to layout your page unless it's actual tabular data.

I have done something less brilliant but no matter how much i check in Firebug, i can't see any style that causes the buttons to get this weird margin on the left side. In fact, they don't even flash (on mouse over) except at the leftmost edge.
The question is twofold. What did the evil computer did?
And, more importantly, how does one trace the source of this weird layout?
The demo page can be found here.
input[type="button"], input[type="submit"] has a left margin of 120px.

I just can't figure out why there is extra grey space on the right of my website. http://freshman101clothing.com. When you minimize your window and horizontally scroll, you will see that there is extra grey space to the right that I obviously do not want. Any coding tips or help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Your ul with the menu items in it has a width: 550px which is pushing to the right of the page in smaller screens.

I'm trying to figure out why the body tag of my site in FF (Mac) doesn't stretch the height of the window? Can anyone see why?
I'm currently in the process of browser-checking the site, so hearing about any other weird stuff would be greatly appreciated!

It's a lot of tutorials of the '100% height'. Probably you need set 100% height to HTML also.
Here are couple of them:
