as gaugau proposed here: http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=28979.0
I start a new thread.

Here's my problem:

I tried to change the table settings in the ACP (album and thumbnail-table), as well as in the template.html. even if I change everything to 50% or 300 px, so that I have lots of unused space around the table, IE displays me a horizontal scrollbar. This only happens, when I run the gallery in a frame. When running seperately, IE is displaying it correctly.
With Firefix I don't have any horizontal scrollbars (neither in a frame nor running seperately).

see the attached file for visualisation.
- left side is IE7 beta 2 (7.0.5296.0), right side is Firefox 1.5.0.3
- 1st row: gallery mainpage
- 2nd row: album overview
- 3nd row: thumbnail overview

direct link: www.unihockey-deitingen.ch/gallery/coppermine

in a frame: www.unihockey-deitingen.ch/enter.htm
(gallery is hidden for public: click on the"i"-dot of "Unihockey" at the top.

I also tried the original coppermine skin and the others included in the cpg 1.4.6-package. same result.
thanks for any feedback.

known issue in IE, try setting the width to 98% instead of 100%

I've already tried this before posting here...
any other ideas?

Make sure to set margin and padding attributes for the body in your stylesheet. Browsers have silly defaults (not "zero") if you fail to define those attributes.

your tip went into the right direction...
I googled
http://www.positioniseverything.net/explorer/doubled-margin.html (in english)
http://www.medani.at/news/2006/02/13/double-float-margin-bug-im-ie/ (in german)

and found out that the scrollbars disappear when

Code: [Select]

display: inline;
is added to the stylesheet.
new bug appears: the table is not centered anymore.
in firefox the table is still centered.

fixed it somehow like this:

Code: [Select]

html, body {
        font-family : Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
        font-size: 11px;
        background : #FFFFFF;
        color : #333333;
        margin-top:0px;
        margin-bottom:0px:
        margin-left:auto;
        margin-right:auto;
        width:98.4%;
        scrollbar-DarkShadow-Color:#FFFFFF; scrollbar-Track-Color:#FFFFFF;
        scrollbar-Face-Color:#1C5087; scrollbar-Shadow-Color:#FFFFFF;
        scrollbar-Highlight-Color:#FFFFFF; scrollbar-3dLight-Color:#FFFFFF;
        scrollbar-Arrow-Color:#FFFFFF

}

body{}
}

I know its not the nicest css, but at least the gallery is now almost centered. In firefox it look a little bit displaced, but acceptable due to the fact, that IE is still more used.
