Just to be iron-clad clear, it's because the page in the capture you provided doesn't scroll vertically. To see the horizontal scroll bar, the page has to be long enough to also scroll vertically.
It's still a problem that could be addressed in some future iteration of the website, but its occurrence is very specific. The worst result for me, in addition to using Magic Mouse as I've described in the first post, is in voting. I use the arrow keys while voting. If the image is large enough, the page scrolls vertically -- and thus also horizontally. When I use the right arrow to move through the images, the page first scrolls to the right before moving to the next image, making the photo shift. Very annoying.

Just updated to Safari v4.0.4 and the horizontal scrollbar is still there.
I wonder is this a bug in safari, or something to do with the DPC site layout? |

The problem is that either menu9_31.js or menu9_com.js is pushing the DPC menubar too far to the right, causing the scrollbar.
Forget that, it's something else to do with the menu.

What he said. I can take a look at fixing it... sorry, I only skimmed the thread -- does the behavior exist on the Windows build of Safari? |

| Still looking at it - I removed these two scripts but the issue is still there (I think) |

I changed this line in menu9_com.js
var StartLeft=((FFYes || ChromeYes)?-17:0); // Menu offset y coordinate. If StartLeft is between 0 and 1 StartLeft is calculated as part of windowheight
to
var StartLeft=-17 // Menu offset y coordinate. If StartLeft is between 0 and 1 StartLeft is calculated as part of windowheight
I just hardcoded it to -17 and it seems to fix the problem. Setting it to 0 made the scrollbar reappear.
So I think there needs to be a conditional check for MacCom in there as well... |

Yes, both the Windows and OS X versions of Safari show this behaviour. |

I reversed the logic so that only IE gets 0 and everyone else gets -17... that fix it? |

No. But I'm not seeing any changes in that script, it still reads: var StartLeft=((!FFYes && !ChromeYes)?0:-17);
Ah, I see what you did! It's not having any effect though.
For reference, the useragent string for Safari on OSX reads: "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10_5_8; en-us) AppleWebKit/531.21.8 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0.4 Safari/531.21.10"

And this is the UA string on Safari Windows:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US) AppleWebKit/531.21.8 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0.4 Safari/531.21.10
Same diff, just the OS.

The following seems to work (I just plugged the test for IE directly into the script);
var StartLeft=((/MSIE (\d+\.\d+);/.test(navigator.userAgent))?0:-17);
Tested on Firefox, Chrome, Safari, and Opera on OSX - NEEDS TESTING on IE !! |

| It appears that this fix has disabled horizontal scrolling in Firefox. That regex has to be finessed, I think. |

Okay, here are the scrollbar results I'm getting at the moment;
Windows XP
IE7: Ok
Firefox 3.5.5: Broken (no horizontal scrollbar)
Chrome 3.0.195.33: Ok
OS X
Chrome 4.0.249.12: Ok
Safari 4.0.4: Ok
Opera 9.27: Ok
Firefox 3.5.5: Broken (no horizontal scrollbar)
So I think Firefox should be treated the same way as IE in that statement
ETA: When I said I'd tested in my other post, I'd actually tested to make sure the horizontal scrollbar *didn't* appear!

There's something whacky going on here. I've changed the line back to;
var StartLeft=((FFYes || ChromeYes)?-17:0);
And the horizontal scrollbar still doesn't appear in firefox!
Did the firefox issue exist before this change? - Because I've hardcoded -17 and 0 into that line, and still no horizontal scrollbar in FF. I suspect that horizontal scrolling in FF was already broken.
ETA: var StartLeft=( ( (/MSIE (\d+\.\d+);/.test(navigator.userAgent)) || (/Firefox[\/\s](\d+\.\d+)/.test(navigator.userAgent)) )?0:-17 );
That's the code to add the Firefox test into the condition, but as I said, -17, 0, whatever won't work for Firefox...

| On the other hand, the guy from the other thread seemed to be suggesting this problem was new. As it just cropped up immediately after this fix, it seems related. |

Unless he decided to check it because we were all going on about the horizontal scrollbar in this thread... :)
So if Langdon wants to change back the line in that script to see if the horizontal scrollbar reappears in FF... Because I couldn't make it work on my test server. |

I'm confused... there should NOT be a horizontal scroll bar in any browser. This is true in FireFox 3.5, Chrome, Safari4, and IE8 on Windows 7. The FFYes and ChromeYes variables were removed from the script, so maybe it's a cache issue? |
