Notice your page svezia.html has a horizontal scrollbar. This is caused
by some mistake in your style sheet. Not the fact that it itself has
long lines, but because some margin is set too wide.

At the moment, your server is down.

Well, that as well.

The long lines in your style sheet cause the *CSS* editing window to
have a scrollbar, as your lines are longer than the width the pane can
be widened to. Go ahead, install the Web Developer Toolbar (very worthy)
in Firefox or Mozilla or SeaMonkey and see for yourself.
