Unwanted Scroll Bar - css

This is the second time I have encountered an unnecessary scrollbar, and the first time I fixed it by adding body{margin:0;}; however, I have no idea what is going on this time. Any ideas?

html {

overflow:auto;
padding-bottom:4em; /* must be same height as footer */
}
#footer {

margin-top:-4em; /* negative value of footer height */
height:4em;
clear:both;
}

color:black;
}
a.navigation:active {
text-decoration:underline;
color:black;
}
.footer-link {

}
a.footer-link:link {
text-decoration:none;

}
a.footer-link:visited {
text-decoration:none;
color:#CC5500;

a.footer-link:hover {
text-decoration:underline;
color:#CC5500;
}
a.footer-link:active {
text-decoration:underline;
color:#CC5500;
}

A quick fix is to add overflow: hidden to the CSS for your #footer.
Note: A scrollbar will still appear if your #body content flows out of the the viewport.
Fiddle
#footer {
overflow:hidden;
position:relative;
margin-top:-4em;
/* negative value of footer height */
height:4em;
clear:both;
}

use overflow:hidden property in html tag as
html
{
overflow: hidden;
}
It will remove unnecessary scroll bars.
By default, this property is auto in case of html tag.

Depending on the direction you want to hide scroll bar
Horizontally
html{
overflow-x: hidden;
}
Vertically
html{
overflow-y: hidden;
}
N.B:
overflow: hidden; => both horizontal and vertical so be careful and know what you actually want.

CSS Responsive move div from right to underneath left and center

I want my footer inner div wrappers to mov from right to underneath left and center when I use responsive media queries. However, when moving last element "Contact us" from right to left, it goes below but it does not center, and the previous div "follow us" is not position in the same line as "copyright".

You do not need to change their margins for smaller screens, just fix their width.

Main div is centered and inner div is left? (CSS/HTML)

I'm trying to design a website where everything is contained withing one main div that restricts everything to 85% of the screen width. I am trying to center the outer div, which seems to have worked, and make the inner div (menubar) float to the left. But no matter what I do I can't get it to go to the left of the outer div, it goes all the way to the left of the page. Thanks for any help.

In your CSS, add

and remove the inline CSS:
<div id="menubar">

HTML & CSS: #wrapper background-image does not appear

so I did searches on here beforehand, trying to find an answer to my question, but all the solutions I found gave me no results. Basically, I have an image in my div#wrapper that I'd like to display, but it won't unless I fill the area -after- the respective div with text.
I have overflow:auto; in my #wrapper since I have floats in the succeeding divs.
CSS file:
#media only screen and (min-width: 25em) {
html {
background: url(images/gridbg.jpg) repeat fixed center top;
}
}
#media only screen and (max-width:25em) {
html {
background-color:#0c0c1f;
}
}
img {
border:0px;
}
textarea:focus, input:focus{
outline: none;
}
#wrapper {
margin:0 auto;
width:60em;
overflow:auto;
background-image:url(images/cont-bg.png);
}
#content {
text-align:justify;
position:fixed;
width:59em;
height:100%;
overflow:auto;
padding-top: 0.4em;
padding-bottom: 0.4em;
padding-left: 0.4em;
padding-right: 0.4em;
outline:none;
z-index:2;
margin-top:12em;
}
#homeNav {
position:fixed;
float:left;
margin-left:0.65em;
margin-top:0.65em;
z-index:3;
}
#primaryNav {
z-index:2;
float:right;
margin-left:28em;
margin-top:1em;
position:fixed;
}
#navGFX {
background-image:url(images/navGFX.png);
background-repeat:no-repeat;
width:60em;
height:8em;
float:left;
position:fixed;
z-index:1;
margin-top:3em;
}

I haven't the foggiest clue what I'm doing wrong. Anyone have any ideas? :/
Just remove the CSS:
position: fixed;
from the #wrapper id and the background-image will appear

CSS Issue Centering NavBar

So, essentially the last time I ever did any web-page development, there was only HTML, and I didn't have anymore than a basic understanding anyways. So now, I'm playing catch up and trying to learn CSS. My issue is a horizontal navbar, which doesn't stay perfectly centered. I've tried adjusting widths, and borders, and margins but I'm missing something.
With my current layout, there is a tad more whitespace on the left than the right, and I am stuck.
Here's the jsfiddle:
http://jsfiddle.net/PkvZ7/
CSS:
<!-- JASCO NAVBAR -->
ul
{
width:100%;
list-style-type: none;
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;
padding:none;
overflow:hidden;
}
li
{
align:center;
width:20%;
margin:0;
padding:0;
display:inline-block;
list-style-type: none;
}
a:link,a:visited
{
display:block;
width:100%;
font-weight:bold;
font-size:20px;
color:#FFFFFF;
background-color:#FF6103;
text-align:center;
padding:5px;
text-decoration:none;
font-variant:small-caps;
}
a:hover,a:active
{
background-color:#000000;
color:#FF6103;
}
#container {
width:100%
}
<!-- TOP CSS-->
.top {
position:absolute;
width:80%;
height:10%;
margin-left:auto;
margin-top:20px;
margin-right:auto;
color:#000000;
padding:0;
}
<!-- CONTENT CSS-->
.content {
position:absolute;
width 100%;
margin-left:10px;
margin-right:10px;
padding:3px;
color:#dddddd;
}
#img
{
}
<!-- TOP IMAGE CSS-->

margin-right:auto;
}

<li>About</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="content">

</div>
</div>
</body>

I appreciate any help/explanation on this matter.
Thanks.
You need a fixed width + margin-left:auto and margin-right:auto. You should not be using absolute positioning for your content - let it flow naturally.
The <center> tag has been deprecated, so use the same technique for your outer "container" wrapper with a width of 960px;.
ul {
width:500px;
list-style-type: none;
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;
padding:0;
}
In general when using list-based menus, use float:left on your LI, use display:block on the A-tag and put all other styling on the A-tag, not the list itself.
See my tutorial: I Love Lists.

Add word-wrap: break-word; word-break: break-all; to #content
Demo here http://jsfiddle.net/ZK6yR/
This occurs when you are using rather long words. Try this:
word-wrap: no-break;
