Killer Possum:
If there is a space before the move tag it activates the scroll bars :(

(this happens on the released versions too, not just this site)

Chris Cromer:
I am not getting any scroll bars... must be your browser. :P

Oldiesmann:
That's not really a bug...

Basically, the <marquee> tag (the HTML tag used for the move feature) can have several attributes, or none at all. Because the "width" attribute isn't defined, the width of the "scrolling area" (invisible - background color is another attribute, but I won't go into that right now) is the width of the entire post box area, so if you're adding a space before it, you're adding an additional space to the width of the post, which makes it do that. The <marquee> tag is quite complex really, but you could always edit subs.php and add a couple of attributes so you could specify the width.

Killer Possum:
Ah, I C :)

Thanks for the help.

Well it is IE :P

Then it's for sure your browser.  And, anyway, it doesn't matter because as I've said in the past, if you try to get me to do anything to the move tag I'll "accidently" remove it.
