Toby I have just had a trawl through your site and noticed an odd
effect. (BTW apologies for hijacking the thread!). Links to other
pages that open in the /same/ window create a huge horizontal scroll
bar while that link is loading. I took the time to capture it:

I could not understand this effect. This is with Firefox 2.0.0.4 on
Slackware 12.
