puzzled1. My pages do not scroll smoothly. Why is this? Manually added extra components? Images? Is it constantly re-drawing the page? Poorly structured code? I'm afriad I can't see why it's doing this.
2. Annoying but not so important - changing the width of the page (i.e. all the boxes as a whole) does not properly affect the recent page, but does the friends page, i.e. I set overall width of the main table to, say, 900px and the friends page does this, but the recent entries page will not go below a certain width (I think ~ 1165px, on my screens). Or rather, I think it may not be going below a certain percentage, but I am using pixels for the main table, not percentages. As it is, I've just made them both big enough that the effect is not seen (~1165px).

"The Grail was invented in the mid-twelfth century by the writer Chretien de Troyes. There was nothing necessarily holy about Chretien's grail; he did not write about it as the cup or chalice at the Last Supper,
nor did he give it any other religious association. For that matter, he did not describe it as a cup or chalice at all, but rather as a serving dish, which is the usual and original meaning of the Old French
word <i>graal</i>. But there is something wonderful about the grail's first appearance in the pages of Chretien's story at the beginning because Chretien never finished what he began, so we do not know what the
secret of the grail was meant to be." <br><br>
