horizontal scrollbars in ie7

Question

I'm trying to build a fluid layout website based on the Golden Grid System without limiting IE7.

I am getting an unwanted horizontal scrollbar for the body. If I force the width to be smaller, it will disappear. However, it will not be fluid.

The layout looks fine, just some unwanted spacing to the right that I cannot account for which is causing the horizontal scrollbar.

This issue is in header element. try adding  . If you remove display: block or add overflow: hidden scrollbar disapear, but also design crashes.

I have included the Modernizr HTML5 Shim/IEPP. Isn't that the same thing? – gavsiu Sep 16 '11 at 05:41
check this out. #site-description font-style: italic causes this issue :) set width for it – simoncereska Sep 16 '11 at 05:45
for some reason, this only affects IE7, so I just targeted IE7 and applied `overflow: hidden` – gavsiu Sep 16 '11 at 06:22
