Description Brian Weinstein 2010-01-12 15:05:53 PST 
Safari insists on displaying a horizontal scroll bar on a lot of washingtonpost.com pages despite no content overflowing. Resizing the window doesn't get rid of the scrollbar. This page, for example...

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/10/23/AR2008102302081.html?nav=rss_print/outlook

The reduction for this is:

<html>
    <body>
        <div style="width:100%; position:absolute;"></div>
    </body>
</html>
