Alright, get this.

I'm not a scripting God. I don't know HTML, or CSS, but I can half-ass my way into manipulating a MySpace page, right? I know the Ins and Outs of scripts, what they do, and how badly they can (potentially) screw up your site.

That said, I've come across a problem that kind of baffles me, for lack of a better word.

I know you and I have both read our fair share of "[waah]My comment box is stretched![/waah]" topics. And I've tried tackling this on my own, but I'm seriously at a loss for words or thoughts when it comes to this.

This is my profile. Notice the comments in the bottom-right/traditional spot. Notice the way they stretch. I'm well aware I'm using a script to have comments scroll, but after quintuple-checking the script, I can guarantee you that's not the problem at hand. Too lazy to click the link and help a guy out? No problem. I took the time and courtesy so you - precious viewer - won't have to waste unnecessary time or extra Firefox tabs with such a trivial problem.



Maybe someone posted a large image, video, or otherwise "margin-breaking" comment? Nope. I've scanned each and every comment, and nothing.

Try "working the script(s) backwards"? Here's what it takes a turn for the peculiar. At one point in time, I was alternating the profile, and removing scripts as I went along. No matter what I deleted, though, the comments were still stretched out.

I got to the point where I deleted all of the fields (that is, my profile was entirely bare; all content emptied, all text/code erased), and the comments were still stretched.

...Are you effing kidding me? Seriously? For the Love - what is going on? There are no scripts interfering with the width. This a given, I guess, seeing as I tried wiping the entire profile clean to no avail. So what gives? I'm truly clueless as to what the error could be, but anyone willing to contribute anything will definitely not go unappreciated.
