Once again CSS is causing me great pain. Could someone tell me how I'm supposed to specify that something should have a width of 100% + padding without causing scrollbars to appear? Shouldn't there be some way to talking about the total width of an element instead of just the width of the content of an element (of course maintaining the ability to talk about the content's width as well).

As a side note I think I've just discovered the primary benefit of a blog - to provide some manner of letting off steam without annoying anybody else.

PS. I guess if I actually wanted somebody to answer my questions I'd better implement comments in the RikWik blogging engine...
